Fishbourne

Fishbourne is a small village just to the west of Chichester in West Sussex, England, lying close to the tidal creeks and marshes of Chichester Harbour and within easy reach of the Solent. The setting mixes coastal landscape with surrounding farmland, and it sits near other local centres such as Bosham and the Goodwood estate, making it a quiet spot with good links to the south coast.

Historically and culturally the village is best known for the Fishbourne Roman Palace, an unusually large first‑century Roman residence with fine mosaics and an on‑site museum that draws visitors and school groups. Today the local economy is a mix of commuter households, small businesses and tourism, while community life centres on the parish amenities and the steady stream of visitors who come to see the Roman remains and enjoy the harbour landscape.
