The PO18 postcode skirts around the north of Chichester and reaches the Sussex South Downs. It is about 13 miles long at its widest point.

The district is famous for the Goodwood Racecourse, owned by the Duke of Richmond, who resides at Goodwood House. A popular attraction is the Weald and Downland Living Museum, with its animals and collection of historic buildings celebrating one thousand years of rural life, situated in stunning countryside on a lakeside location.
Halnaker Windmill is a must-visit, offering commanding views and a rich history from the Neolithic to World War 2.

Bosham is an attractive coastal village situated on Chichester Harbour, served by nearby Bosham Station.
Budding archaeologists would have heard of the Village of Boxgrove, where the local quarry has unearthed prehistoric treasures, including the remains of Boxgrove Man, an early ancestor who lived in PO18 an incredible 500,000 years ago.
Boxgrove also boasts the ruins of Boxgrove Abbey near the historic St Mary and St Blaise Church.

If you still have the energy to explore more, you could do worse than visit the Racton Monument, a castle-like folly built so that the 2nd Earl of Halifax could hold banquets and watch his ships sail past.
The monument commands breath taking views over rolling downs and out to Chichester Harbour, the Solent, and the Isle of Wight. Sadly, the monument is now a ruin in a state of disrepair and overgrown with vegetation.
