Tangmere sits on the flat coastal plain of West Sussex, positioned about three miles east of Chichester and just south of the A27. Historically, its identity is inseparable from its role as a frontline fighter station during the Second World War; while the airfield closed in 1970, the famous Military Aviation Museum remains a focal point of the village. Today, the local landscape is a mix of the original village center - marked by the 12th century St Andrew’s Church - and significant newer residential developments that have grown around the former perimeter tracks. Daily life is supported by a community primary school, a local co-op, and a village hall, with the expansive Tangmere Recreation Ground providing a green heart for the community. Its geography makes it a practical spot for those working in the city or along the coast, offering a quieter, village atmosphere while keeping the South Downs and the shops of Chichester within a ten-minute drive.
