Dear Friends, I must say that the world has certainly changed in recent weeks, as it comes to terms with the onslaught of this horrid coronavirus—COVID-19. As I sat in our beautiful church yesterday, all alone, my mind wandered, and I imagined what the historic walls of our church would say if they could speak... Perhaps they would speak of wars, plagues, insurrections, storms, Lloods, kings, knights, peasants, Lisherman, villagers, visitors; then there would be words of hope, love, joy and peace. There would be music, laughter, singing; or tears of joy, and tears of sorrow, of many thoughts and countless prayers. The welcoming hello and Linal farewell. Not to forget grand processions, or a single child running up the aisle. A great peal in celebration, or a sombre mufLled bell. The smell of incense or freshly brewed coffee after morning worship. A smile, or the occasional glare. Of sinners set free or those too burdened to tell, of a choir in full voice, or that still small voice of calm. Oh, if these walls could speak! Ultimately, they are just walls, albeit Line ones, yet what makes them more than this are the countless generations which have inhabited them. The people of God. As Christians it is our faith that unites us at this difLicult time, along with a common purpose. We must remember, Ex Lide fortis , that from faith comes strength. Our faith will sustain us in these coming weeks and months and no doubt it will be tested. Yet we should not be surprised at this, for the scriptures make it clear that we will surely face adversity in life, so we will need to rely upon our faith and one another. As Christians we are never without hope—for we are an ‘Easter people’. We will embrace Easter, in our homes and in our hearts; as we do so we are reminded that God chose to become like us in order to transform the poverty of our nature and give us life—life to the full and welling up to eternity. My brothers and sisters, whatever we face in the coming months, let us not lose sight of the hope of resurrection which is the crowning truth of our faith. There is no person or situation beyond its reach. Be assured of my daily prayers for you all. Martin Cancellations due to COVIDCOVID----19191919 Our original intention was to list those local events which had been postponed or cancelled in response to the pandemic. It now seems that EVERYTHING in the village is cancelled for at least the month of April, and probably longer! The Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church have both said that all events taking place in church should be cancelled, with the exception of funerals and weddings. Please seek advice from the churches.

He made numerous contributions to the life of the village, one of the most visible being the setting up and maintenance of the ‘Bosham Book Box’, a free lending library based on the disused phone box in front of the Catholic Church. More recently, he took over the organisation of ‘Bosham Friends’, which provides local transport for people to attend medical and other appointments. He will be greatly missed by many, both young and old. In view of the current world health situation, a Memorial Service to celebrate his life has been postponed for the time being. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Joan, and all his family.

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.

    ‘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.
