    Very interesting to see this. I lived close to Westhampnett where the river "overtopped" as it has in the past and will do again. All that area covered ni high density housing now.

    Really amazing to see the place a drive into and out of daily in such a desperate way, I was only a teenager when this happened but being on the roads now for some years I have good memories of the 2000 floods and I think it was 2010/11 ? I maybe wrong. Hopefully it never gets to that situation again!

    Of course when I’m born there’s barely any snow

    Good old Green Goddesses, their pumps saved the city.

    Chichester city is uphill from West Hampnett and uphill from The Hornet: water doesn't travel uphill!

    It annoys me how they refer to chichester as a city. It's a bloody village.
