オービングのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

In the case of a "market cross," such as the one we encounter once again in the center of Chichester, one would have to ask the fundamental question of whether it is actually primarily a small sacred monument—as its cross shape suggests—or whether it is more of a secular object. In times long past, such a cross—unlike the classic wayside crosses or field crosses—was only allowed to be erected on site if the locality in question also possessed so-called "market rights"—that is, if it had been granted a corresponding privilege by the local ruler.

It's not only the market cross. Only about 100 yards from here you find the impressive cathedral with adjacent monastery - worth a visit. And across the dtreet from the cathedral in another former church you find the pleasant "The Duke's" Pub.

Adventurous narrow gravel road with narrow sections

A mighty cathedral with an adjoining monastery marks the center of the small town of Chichester.

Lovely place to stop for a sip of water

2 hours free parking gives plenty time to take a nice stroll. There’s also a good gastro pub and cafe with outdoor seating (and dog friendly).

Great pub, extremely busy on sunny days/ weekends so meal service can be slow but totally worth the wait. Very limited parking at the pub but that’s ok because we’re hiking there!

It’s lovely walking on top of the walls, but if you go round the back of Priory Park you get a better view of the scale.
