In September I am hoping to take part in a fund raising event that involves either walking or cycling to around 40 specified churches in the local area (Worthing, Littlehampton, Bognor etc.) I am mapping out a course that includes a church in Burpham, followed by one in South Stoke. Is there a road linking the two places? my on-line map is not detailed enough..Cheers
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Anyone on NSC know Burpham well?

Pub there, George and Dragon, is a better than average gastro pub, recommended

No you have the river in between the 2 churches.

As others have said no there isn't a link, you'd have to go back to Arundel and then down to S. Stoke. Deffo stop for a pint in the George though!

I was once found at the bottom of Burpham Well. I had such a dry throat from the screaming for help that the fire brigade who'd roped me to safety had a chilled calippo waiting for me. It was an orange one. Nice. I assume they give kids them after tonsilitis operations. I was 24 though. Still, it went down well and i was suitably thankful. On the way back they turned on their siren for a minute and i stuck my head out of the window like a pleased dog might (whilst of course humanly being watchful of lamppost and passing cars). When i went back inside the monstrous vehicle i had a fly in one eye, one that had splatted in there and crawled to safety behind the ball. Amusingly,they had to drive me to the hospital anyway as i'd been eating my fingernails in the well, so things still turned out just right in the end.

It can be walked a there is a footbridge at South Stoke over the river. All you need to do is follow a footpath on the eastern bank of the river from Burpham until you reach the footbridge.
