This month’s target is smokers. Not that I am so incensed, Date Day A.M H P. M H now that I can go out for an evening and not have to put everything I 1st Fri 9.12 4.4 21.42 4.7 was wearing straight in the wash, nor wake up half way through the 2nd Sat 10.11 4.6 22.34 4.8 night with the pillow stinking like an old ash tray. What I’m talking 3rd Sun 11.04 4.7 23.22 4.9 about is car smokers, you know the ones who drive along, slightly 4th Mon 11.56 4.8 swerving – in true mobile phone user fashion – whilst groping around 5th Tues 0.11 4.9 12.50 4.9 to find the packet and light up, all while maintaining a steady 60mph. 6th Wed 1.02 4.9 13.48 4.9 The ones with the ‘Baby on Board’ sticker in the window – to remind 7th Thurs 1.54 4.8 14.41 4.8 other road users they need to be extra careful as they have a precious 8th Fri 2.45 4.7 15.30 4.8 cargo on board - and then with the windows firmly shut proceed to 9th Sat 3.35 4.6 16.15 4.6 chain smoke throughout their journey. But what really annoys me is 10th Sun 4.23 4.4 17.00 4.5 the litter! Throwing rubbish from cars is thankfully very rare these 11th Mon 5.13 4.2 17.47 4.3 days, excepting certain Take Away connoisseurs, who rather than walk 12th Tues 6.04 4.0 18.37 4.2 two yards to a bin, chuck the wrappers and often half the contents out 13th Wed 7.01 3.9 19.35 4.0 wherever they happen to have parked. Most people I know have some sort of receptacle in the vehicle to collect the odd sweet wrapper or 14th Thurs 8.08 3.8 20.42 4.0 parking ticket and wouldn’t dream of winding down the window and 15th Fri 9.20 3.9 21.45 4.1 chucking something out. However smokers seem to think it is perfectly 16th Sat 10.18 4.0 22.34 4.2 acceptable to fling their matches, fag ends – often still alight, and often 17th Sun 11.04 4.2 23.14 4.3 the packets out into the road. I have heard claims of dog ends being so 18th Mon 11.47 4.3 23.56 4.4 small they are unnoticeable and the material all being bio-degradable 19th Tues 12.27 4.4 so it’s not really litter – well I’ve got one thing to say to that – 20th Wed 0.32 4.4 13.05 4.4 RUBBISH!! I can’t say I haven’t had a crafty puff on a cigarette – but 21st that was about 30 years ago, but the only type of smoker I’m likely to Thurs 1.07 4.4 13.41 4.5 get involved with nowadays is my trusty copper model, kindly donated 22nd Fri 1.43 4.4 14.17 4.5 to me – a beekeeper’s best friend! Happy Diamond Jubilee ~ Fiona 23rd Sat 2.19 4.4 14.54 4.5 Crickey, someone has really got up Fiona’s nose ! So much so she’s 24th Sun 2.58 4.4 15.34 4.5 taken up most of the space again - well that’s you smokers fault ! 25th Mon 3.41 4.4 16.18 4.5 Actually when I watch ITV iplayer there is a very good anti-smoking 26th Tues 4.30 4.3 17.09 4.4 advert, maybe I could get it on DVD for Fi to watch. We are a non 27th Wed 5.27 4.2 18.04 4.4 smoking household, thank goodness - my Dad gave his habit in 1964 28th Thurs 6.27 4.2 19.04 4.3 when his Senior Service went up to 2/4d - that’s 25p !!!

Being aligned north-south, it crosses all the main geologies of West Sussex from the greensand ridges, through Wealden river valleys and heathlands, to the high chalk downland and the coastal plain. In so doing it offers a great variety of scenery, flora and fauna. The trail logo reflects this by depicting the South Downs, the River Rother and Chichester Harbour. It can be walked energetically in three days, bearing in mind that the total ‘climb’ is around 650 metres/2,000 feet. The maps divide it into six sections, which although unequal in distance, break the route into stages that allow the possible use of public transport. There is a good choice of accommodation and restaurants in Liphook, Midhurst and Chichester, elsewhere there is a smattering of pubs and B&Bs – although the northern section is a little sparse in that respect.

Monitoring and Review 63 2 Foreword Neighbourhood planning was introduced by the Localism Act 2011 and provides communities with the opportunity to shape the future development of their town or parish by putting in place a Neighbourhood Development Plan. In December 2012 Bosham Parish Council ("BPC") applied to Chichester District Council ("CDC") for the designation of the Bosham parish boundary as the Neighbourhood Plan Area. This designation was made on 18th March 2013 and work on the Bosham Parish Neighbourhood Plan began. The Bosham Parish Neighbourhood Plan ("BPNP") has been produced by a Project Team appointed by and reporting to BPC and as a result of the careful consideration of numerous consultation exercises and responses from the community and a wide variety of local stakeholders. Detailed consideration has also been given to numerous evidential sources including local survey information and higher level planning policies and guidance. This work has been undertaken with the assistance of the Bosham Association and community volunteers and with the advice and support of the CDC and the Chichester Harbour Conservancy.

  • The Stone Coffins of Bosham Church
    FROM THE ARCHIVES: THE STONE COFFINS OF BOSHAM CHURCH I have kept to the old spelling of Canute throughout this article, since this was how it was spelt until quite recently, but it is now more usual to spell it ‘Cnut’. Is King Canute’s Daughter buried in Bosham Church? Unfortunately, it is not possible to give a definite answer to this question but I did think that visitors to the church via the website or in person to the church itself, might be interested in the long held tradition that King Canute’s daughter was drowned in the millstream early in the 11 th century, and buried in Bosham church and the subsequent finding of a small stone coffin in front of the chancel arch in 1865. Canute was King of England from 1016-1035 and although we have no written evidence that Canute had a Manor House in Bosham or indeed ever had time to come to Bosham, this tradition has been handed down from generation to generation and the story has gradually evolved over the years from Saxon princess to King Canute’s daughter. There is also the little stone effigy which is on the recessed tomb by the organ in the chancel of the church and which was thought to represent the little princess but carved much later, possibly, in the reign of Edward I (1272-1307), as a suitable memorial to her. The effigy and tomb do not appear to go together. In 1865 when considerable restoration work was being done in the church the Reverend Henry Mitchell, Vicar of Bosham from 1845-1912, decided to take the opportunity to test this long held tradition.

  • The Real Natives
    ‘Real Natives’ A Study of the History of Oyster Fishing in Chichester Harbour for the Sussex Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authority Dr Ian Friel MA, PhD, FSA © Ian Friel 2020 Oysters - a once-common food Poor food for friars ‘Give me then of thy gold, to make our cloister’, Quoth he, ‘for many a mussel and many an oyster ‘When other men have been full well at ease ‘Hath been our food, our cloister for to raise’ Geoffrey Chaucer, The Summoner’s Tale, c 1387-88 A Chichester bet In 1813 a man named Martin from Dell Quay Mill and another named Fogden from Donnington met at Chalkright’s fishmonger shop in South Street, Chichester, to settle a bet as to who could eat the most oysters: ‘in a short time each swallowed four hundred large ones’ until Martin called for a halt. Fogden agreed, as long as Martin paid for the oysters. They then went to the King’s Head for a glass of brandy, followed by an eel pie supper at Martin’s house. Ipswich Journal, 11 December 1813, p 1 The London Oyster Season opens: Billingsgate Fishmarket, August 1835: ‘At an early hour a scene of unusual bustle and confusion was apparent. Not less than 5,000 persons were in waiting to be served with the ‘real natives’, while the streets in the vicinity were blocked up with every species of locomotive vehicle to convey the oysters to the various quarters of the metropolis. There were no less than fifty sail of vessels in front of Billingsgate laden with oysters, chiefly from the Kentish coast.

  • Introduction
    Introduction Location of the AONB The Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (the AONB) is located in the counties of West Sussex and Hampshire on the southern coast of England (Fig 1). The AONB forms an irregular area, its boundary following a number of roads and other features, including the harbour mouth, to enclose some 74 sq km. The western boundary of the AONB is marked by the B2179 through West Wittering, along the A286 to Dell Quay where the boundary continues north up Appledram Lane to meet the Chichester By Pass. The A259 constitutes the long northern boundary of the AONB. The boundary turns south down Bath Road, heading west along the coast to rejoin the A259, then turning south at Langstone and crossing the Langstone Bridge. The eastern boundary follows field boundaries and minor roads down the east coast of Hayling Island.
