Goring by Sea

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Goring-by-Sea is a seaside village in West Sussex on the south coast of England, about two miles (3 km) west of Worthing town centre. Since 1929 Goring has been part of the Borough of Worthing. Usually known as "Goring", the "by-Sea" suffix has been added to differentiate it from the village of Goring-on-Thames in Oxfordshire.

The Catholic church, English Martyrs, has a copy of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, painted by Gary Bevans. [1] The Anglican parish church, St Mary's is also worth a visit.

Goring is served by Goring-by-Sea railway station and is thought to have been the inspiration for the name of the character Lord Goring in Oscar Wilde's play An Ideal Husband.

The mixed pebble and sand beach is popular for a wide variety of watersports, has a boat ramp, and is dog friendly. There is a busy café at its west end. The 1980's punk pop singer Billy Idol (William Broad) lived there for a few years.
