Long ago this charming,
family-oriented coastal resort in West Sussex
was an important port bringing in French stone
to be used in the building of both English
castles and churches.
Until the 19th century
it ran a passenger ferry service to France.
Now its atmospheric harbour exudes a pleasant
salty air.
The town has a promenade
and an 18-hole golf course, not to mention the
chance for fishing and boating. |
