Three Leg Cross is a small village located in the county of Sussex, England. Situated in the rural countryside, it is nestled between the towns of Chichester and Arundel. The village derives its name from the meeting point of three roads that intersect in the shape of a cross, hence the name "Three Leg Cross."

The village is known for its picturesque landscapes, with rolling hills and fields surrounding the area. It is a popular destination for nature lovers and hikers, as there are several walking trails that meander through the countryside, showcasing the beauty of the South Downs National Park.

Although small in size, Three Leg Cross has a tight-knit community that takes pride in preserving its rural charm. The village consists primarily of traditional cottages and farmhouses, adding to its idyllic atmosphere.
