Forming part of the South Downs National Park, Warningcamp is a peaceful settlement situated on the east bank of the historic medieval town of Arundel.
Referred to in the Domesday Survey as a farming settlement, over the years Warningcamp has gone through a process of expansion and contraction. Once a thriving village with its own school and chapel, it has in recent decades reverted to a quiet, idyllic hamlet.
The village neighbours Crossbush, Blakehurst, Wepham and Burpham.

In June 2012 members of the Village got together to create and bury a Diamond Jubilee time capsule. As an effort focused around the Youth of Warningcamp many different types of artifacts were enclosed into the time capsule which will hopefully create very interesting memories once dug up again in years to come.
Local and Visiting children were encouraged to bring a small item commemerating the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee to a party held prior to the capsule burial. These items are among others now inside the capsule, and children who brought items were issued with a certificate recording the object, with their name and address so the item could be claimed back after 4th June 2037 when the capsule can be excavated and opened once again.
As tradition dictates the capsule was buried in an undisclosed Warningcamp location, making the whole project slightly anonomous. It is pleasing that a small Village such as ourselves took the time and effort to create such a memory for the communities’ youth.
By promoting local events and traditions, we strive to create a welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels valued, contributing to a vibrant and inclusive village spirit.
