The village grew up around the crossing place of the old Roman road, Stane Street, over the River Arun and the road to Winchester. Where the Wealden landscape rises out of the river valley Pulborough church sits, however, the commercial centre straggles along the east-west road known as Lower Street. Many of the shops are still housed in the cottages that line the street.
