Long Sutton has a village green with a lime tree at each corner and a chestnut tree in the centre. The Devonshire Arms Hotel is at one end of the green and at the other are the former primary school and Holy Trinity church, dating from 1490.The village is made up of two hamlets, Knole at one end and Upton at the other. A schematic map of village has been drawn showing street names and post codes.
The population of the Parish has never been more mixed, socially and economically, than it is today. Incomers, long term residents, retired and working people all combine to form a caring and dynamic society which is determined to maintain all that is good about the Parish.
In 2000 "Long Sutton at the Millemmium" was written as a snapshot of the village. Also, the Women's Institute produced a hand-painted map of the village illustrating key elements of its history, architecture and activities - copies of which are available from the village shop.
In 2008 a Parish Plan was created to identify, preserve and enhance those qualities that make Long Sutton such a good place to live in.
