Have a good friend in UK who is planning to visit Chichester in the coming month so I thought it would at least make me look good to learn something about it, and upon remembering Richard lives in Sussex, he seemed like the most likely suspect to have some content worth looking at. 🙂
Having lived very near Chichester I loved this video. Is always a brilliant place to take visitors. I agree about the importance of looking UP. The Bishops Garden is lovely with some amazing trees, views of the Cathedral and a section of the wall easily accessible. Thanks.
Great video Richard, dont know how I managed to miss this one. In February this year my wife and I had reason to visit Chichester Registry office and in the reception area there was a large rack of old and ancient reproduction maps of Chichester and the surrounding areas and if memory serves me correctly, they were FREE to take although they did ask for a donation for the printing costs etc,. Im pretty sure that you would find them fascinating, I had meant to mention it before but somehow it had slipped my mind till today when I found this video. Im pretty sure you would find them fascinating, although you may well already know about them.
Gosh, it's hard choosing a top 10 in Chichester, there is so much to choose from. So many ancient churches squeezed into odd little places, the cathedral precincts, the museum, even the railway station is a bit quirky!

Top ten is a great idea. Finally got some tickets to fly over from Oz this Christmas so your vids give great anticipation.
Fabulous - I am sure you will enjoy your visit!
Really enjoyed that - I’ve seen most of those top 10 but not all - will have to go back to Chichester!
Well worth a visit and nice cake to be had too!
Loved the video, when I could get on a bus , always looked at the top of the buildings as we went along, look forward to more of these videos.
Thanks Ann - always good to look up!

I would urge any visitor to Chichester to visit the Pallant House Gallery.
ooh sounds great - thank you
went there whilst staying at church farm haven site-it was ok tbf
Down East Street. The NEXT building is interesting. It may not be 11th century old but still worth looking into.
I will have to return and have a look.
as usual, very interesting....places I never saw when I lived in England...
Where do you live now Tim?

Wow - so exotic - compared to the good old UK at least! :)
Very interesting......
Thanks Daniel.
Chichester is yet another town, like Shrewsbury, I have often driven round, on the A27, but never visited !
Oh you must! :)
