  • To Tread Lightly on the Earth and Reduce the Environmental Load in My Local Community
    Sidlesham Litter Pickers – the results of litter picking around my village in West Sussex, UK Conference for Global Transformation 2021, Landmark Education – Measuring Accomplishment by Gayle Palmer My global commitment: To tread lightly on the Earth and reduce the environmental load in my local community. Sidlesham is the largest Parish in West Sussex and wholly rural 17.53 km2 (6.77 sq mi). It is on the Manhood Peninsula, five kilometres (3 miles) south of Chichester in the Chichester District of West Sussex, England. It has a population of under 2,000 in just 448 households. It has one main road going through it from Chichester to the small town of Selsey and various small lanes which cross the Peninsula. Primarily agricultural, it also has a large horticultural use and it bounded by two harbours (both SSSI’s, AONB’s (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and of National importance for their flora and fauna). In 46AD the Romans landed in Pagham Harbour and the Saxon Aella landed along the Keynor rife near the site of the present village school in 477AD. St Wilfred is considered to have landed in Pagham Harbour at Church Norton. Street End Lane follows the line of a Roman Road and there are the remains of a Roman villa at Bird Pond. Sidlesham is recorded in the Domesday Book and the Normans built part of the present church in 1200AD. https://www.sidlesham.org/about/sidlesham-history/ I began litter picking in 2017 after my standard poodle had several cut paws, in March 2018 I started to measure what I collected as the amounts were shocking! To keep track I started the Facebook group #SidleshamLitterPickers.

  • Boundary Commission England Recommendations for Review of Wards of Chichester District Council
    BOUNDARY COMMISSION ENGLAND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR REVIEW OF WARDS OF CHICHESTER DISTRICT COUNCIL Response from FISHBOURNE PARISH COUNCIL on the Boundary Commission’s three main considerations. 1. Electoral Equality achieved by Draft recommendations: Boundary Commission Recommendation: Bosham, Fishbourne, Appledram and Donnington to form a 3 member ward entitled Bosham & Donnington Ward. Electorate Electors per Variance Electorate Electors per Variance (2015) Councillor from (2021) Councillor from (2015) average (2021) average 7,924 2,641 3% 8,355 2,785 1% COMMENT: The proposal meets the consideration of improving electoral equality. 2. Reflection of Community Identity. COMMENT: There is serious concern about the unintended damage that would be caused by the choice of name for the new ward. Though “Bosham and Donnington” has the advantage of marking the geographical extremes of the new ward, it omits two of the village names and this could have damaging (though unintended) outcomes. Whatever rule is applied to naming of new wards has to have room for some flexibility. This is where local knowledge has such an important part to play. In this particular case, combining the names of four separate villages under the name of two of them conflicts both with the Fishbourne Neighbourhood Plan and with the CDC's own local plan both of which stress the need for the preservation of the individual villages and of the neighbouring AONB. This is vital not only because of the quality of life in the separate villages but also because we are fighting to prevent major developers from building on the strategic gaps between villages and destroying for ever the charm and attraction of the coastal villages and their popularity as a tourist area.

  • 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. The ‘corners’ of this irregular area are marked by the NGRs 472680 105845, 474475 97505, 484020 100890, and 484230 104605. The area encompasses a number of small picturesque harbour villages, including Itchenor, Dell Quay, Bosham, Bosham Hoe, Chidham, West Thorney and parts of West Wittering, Fishbourne, Nutbourne, and Prinsted, as well as the major ‘arms’ of Chichester Harbour itself – Emsworth Channel, Thorney Channel, Chichester Channel and Bosham Channel. It includes a broad range of landscapes and seascapes providing continuity from inland areas through marginal land and intertidal ranges to underwater sites in the channels. The Harbour is a recognised archaeological and historical resource as well as a valued natural environment. Status of the AONB The status of the AONB was designated by order on 7 July 1963, and this was confirmed by order on 4 February 1964.

  • Chichester Harbour Conservancy Was Created to Manage This Unique Area for Recreation, Nature Conservation and to Protect Its Natural Beauty
    Chichester Harbour Information for Mariners 2021 www.conservancy.co.uk CELEBRATING 50 YEARS This year, brings with it a very special milestone - our 50th anniversary. In 1971 Chichester Harbour Conservancy was created to manage this unique area for recreation, nature conservation and to protect its natural beauty. It is testament to the well thought out statutory arrangements underpinning the organisation, and in particular the strong involvement of Harbour users in its management, that it has been such a successful body. Thanks go in particular to the impressive contribution of Chichester Harbour Federation, and to enlightened Harbour users demonstrating consideration in sharing this fantastic Harbour with a multitude of others and the rich wildlife. We’ve incorporated the 50th anniversary into this year’s plaque, and will also be marking the milestone with some new initiatives through the year.

  • Harbour Villages Ward - Liberal Democrats Campaign Team Chichester Local Plan Review 2035 Submissions
    Harbour Villages Ward - Liberal Democrats Campaign Team Chichester Local plan Review 2035 Submissions Our Observations We wish to be called at the time of the Planning Inspection. This plan appears to have been created in a short time and therefore lacks cohesion. Information used in one area is different to that elsewhere. Points made for: Apuldram/Donnington/Bosham/Chidham/Hambrook/Fishbourne make it appear that they have been written in silos. Can you please look at each one and try and line the reasoning up. Our fear is that this document needs significant change for it to be fit and proper and presentable to the Inspector. 3.1 to 3.2 It is our view that an opportunity has been missed to: 1. Look at new opportunities to develop away from existing settlements 2. Look at innovative solution to develop new dwellings. There is no provision for a. Kit built small homes b. Eco style properties built in a rural environment 3. Choose CDC identified sites rather than be lead by developers 3.4 The plan does insufficient to encourage students or young people to come to Chichester or for them to remain to develop careers. In the report “Know your Place” by BBC Chichester scored very badly. Going out and sports facilities scored zero. Busses scored one. 3.5 We do not accept that the wider plan has taken into account the wider range of environmental aspirations. The size and scope of planned development along the East West corridor damages the environment and fails to enhance the social aspirations of the communities.

  • Save Our South Coast Alliance (SOSCA) Press Release 15 March 2021
    Save our South Coast Alliance (SOSCA) Press release 15 March 2021 Chichester’s Coastal Plain at a Tipping Point Fears are growing about the future of Chichester’s coastal plain as more and more community representatives urge politicians and policy makers to prioritise the environment and climate change resilience, claiming the area is now at a tipping point. Chichester Harbour, the Manhood peninsula and the surrounding coastal hinterland form one of the south coast’s leading staycation and international tourist destinations as well as it's most productive food growing areas. The area is also home to the largest group of vital CO2 absorbing biodiverse wetlands in the south and is one of the UK’s most important habitat areas for many types of birds as well as endangered species such as water voles. But all these irreplaceable assets are at risk while Chichester District Council lacks a strategic spatial plan going forward, according to Save our South Coast Alliance. (SOSCA). SOSCA is a research-backed alliance working closely with a growing number of organisations calling for a re-appreciation of the coastal area’s unique assets. The other organisations include Save our Harbour Villages (SOHV), Chichester Harbour Trust, the Manhood Peninsula Action Group (MPAG), Stand Up for Chichester (SU4Chi) and Pagham Action Group and many others as well as parish councils. In the absence of a current Local Plan the district is facing dozens of large-scale housing applications across the coastal plain. Such ad hoc planning will quickly destroy the most important assets in the district – tourism, farming and its incredible marine and wetland ecosystem – the campaign groups claim.
