Local area guide
Skip hire in Chichester
Chichester is a cathedral city in West Sussex, sitting on the coastal plain around six miles inland from the Solent, with a population of around 30,000. It was founded by the Romans as Noviomagus Reginorum, and its layout still follows the Roman plan exactly: four streets — North, South, East and West — meeting at a central cross, enclosed by walls whose circuit largely survives as a public walkway. The Chichester Cross, an elaborate Perpendicular market cross of 1501, stands at that junction and is one of the finest in England.
Chichester Cathedral, begun in 1075, is the only medieval English cathedral visible from the sea, and unusually has a free-standing bell tower. It combines Norman and Gothic fabric with a striking collection of modern art — a John Piper tapestry, a Marc Chagall window, a Graham Sutherland painting and a Bernstein-commissioned work — reflecting a deliberate twentieth-century policy of commissioning contemporary artists. The twelfth-century Chichester Reliefs in the south aisle are among the finest Romanesque carvings in Europe.
Just outside the city, Fishbourne Roman Palace is the largest Roman residential building known north of the Alps, with an exceptional collection of in-situ mosaics including the famous Cupid on a Dolphin. The Chichester Festival Theatre, opened in 1962 under Laurence Olivier's direction as its first artistic director, is one of the most influential regional theatres in Britain, and Goodwood — with its motor circuit, Festival of Speed, Revival meeting and racecourse — lies a few miles north.
Chichester sits on the A27 with the A286 running north into the Downs, and Chichester station on the West Coastway line gives services to London Victoria in around 90 minutes and along the coast to Brighton and Portsmouth. Chichester Harbour, a National Landscape and one of the most important wildlife and sailing areas on the south coast, lies immediately west, and the South Downs National Park begins to the north. Neighbouring communities include Bosham, West Wittering, Selsey, Bognor Regis, Midhurst and Petworth.
Housing in Chichester includes some of the most desirable in Sussex, with Georgian townhouses in the Pallants — the quarter around Pallant House, a fine 1712 merchant's house now an internationally regarded art gallery — alongside medieval and timber-framed buildings within the walls, Victorian terraces in Whyke and Summersdale, interwar and post-war housing, and substantial modern development at Graylingwell and Whitehouse Farm. The historic core has an exceptional concentration of listed buildings, and the combination of harbour, Downs and Goodwood keeps property values well above the regional average.
