West Sussex County Council: Centurion Way Railway Path

A 5 mile (8km) route for cyclists and pedestrians between Chichester and West Dean, following the line of part of the disused Chichester to Midhurst Railway.

The name Centurion Way is based on the fact that the path crosses the course of a Roman road. Eye catching sculptures relating to aspects of local history have been provided along the route. The route connects with the South Coast Cycle Route at Fishbourne where cyclists can continue westwards to visit Fishbourne Roman Palace and Bosham. Northwards, the route continues to West Dean House and Gardens and the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum at Singleton.
