17th May Chichester; Part 5; Itchenor.

Itchenor, one of the Chichester Harbour villages, has been a sailing centre for centuries.
During the 20th century there has been development in from the water's edge of smart detached houses.
Itchenor is a short distance across the water from Bosham.



This is a 1950's picture of boats at Itchenor.




The tide was out when were there. We walked on the mud flats and admired the patterns of the small dingies.

Much bigger, luxury boats were being constructed at the boat builders.


These are the original old harbour cottages stretching down to the water.
