Bob and I did not walk to Chichester, but we did walk to Anmering to catch the train. This is the same station we arrived at a few days prior when our homeowners picked us up. This train station is a little over 2 miles from our house. The train to Chichester was a quick 20 minutes. We booked an open-ended return ticket since we didn’t know how long we’d stay. We arrived a little before 11 and ended up taking the 2 pm train back.
Chichester is the only city in West Sussex. It has a long history having been important in Anglo-Saxon times and has a 12th century cathedral that is currently undergoing restoration work.
One of the things that intrigued us about Chichester were the walls that remain around part of the town. However having started on the looped wall walk around the city, we took a brief deter to wander the lovely grounds of the Bishops Palace Garden. This lies between the cathedral and the city walls and is a public park maintained by the city.
The remainder of the wall walk took us around other parks and some of the town center .
From the wall walk we went into the Town center. We even stopped at a cafe for a sausage roll for Bob and a coffee for me. It was a lively place, as there was a climate change rally going on near the Chichester across.
