Mixing Roman and medieval roots, Chichester sits at the heart of a storied landscape where South Down hills dotted with idyllic hamlets ripple back from a shoreline mixing wild dune-backed beaches with old-school seaside resorts. Reminders of smuggling and war add spice. But a thrilling thread of modernity runs through this slice of West Sussex too. Chichester's modernist Festival Theatre provided the foundation for London's National Theatre, while masterpieces of contemporary architecture that draw admirers from around the world include Sea Lane House in East Preston and The White Tower in Bognor Regis. Evocative ancient memorials abound. Chichester is blessed with the only English cathedral visible from the sea, while England's largest castle rises above the ravishing - and cosmopolitan - riverside town of Arundel. Ancient yew trees mark the burial spots of Viking warriors in an idyllic Downland spot. And it's a land vibrant with creative imprints: poets, painters, composers, from Blake and Keats to Joyce and Chagall. This guidebook takes you exploring Chichester and its surroundings to find incomparable natural beauty, hidden secrets, astonishing history, art of all kinds, and much more.
