About

Durrington South sits on the western side of Worthing, stretching from the seafront inland across mainly residential streets. The area is made up of terraces, semi-detached houses and small housing estates, with local shopping parades and community facilities serving day-to-day needs. A short promenade and shingle beach run along the coast here, and narrow paths link the seafront to the streets behind. Local green spaces and play areas are scattered through the ward and used by families and older residents alike.

Transport is shaped by the West Coastway Line; Durrington-on-Sea railway station provides direct services east to Brighton and west to Portsmouth, and its footbridge is a practical link between the station, housing and the promenade. Bus routes follow the coastal road and connect the neighbourhood to Worthing town centre. Planning in the area mixes infill development with older layouts, so street patterns change over short distances and small community halls and shops sit close to housing.
