Turning the tide at Bosham's beach
This coastal Sussex town is best known for its famous beach, where legend has it King Canute tried to turn back the tide. The pleasant beach Near Bosham Harbour is also where King Harold set sail from before the Norman invasion of 1066. Today, if you can manage to make the waves retreat, the beach is a good spot for a long walk. At high tide, though, the water laps at the feet of the village itself.
Visit beautifully preserved churches
With Bosham's rich history comes a rich vein of architectural heritage, mainly in the form of the village's Holy Trinity church. Here you can see one of the best Saxon chancel arches in the country. The church is depicted in the famous Bayeux Tapestry. Elsewhere, there is the historic Anchor Bleu Inn from 1740 and the Congregational church, built in 1837.
