About

Emsworth ward encompasses the historic coastal village of Emsworth itself, along with surrounding residential areas like Westbourne and Prinsted. The geography is defined by its position on the northern shore of Chichester Harbour, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The landscape mixes residential streets with significant stretches of saltmarsh, tidal creeks, and farmland. The harbour's intricate network of waterways shapes the local environment and is central to the area's character.

The settlement is focused around the mill pond and the remains of the old tidal mills, with a compact high street leading to the quay. Sailing and boatbuilding are longstanding activities here, with several boatyards operating along the shoreline. The area is known for its oyster fisheries, with cultivation beds visible at low tide in the harbour. This maritime heritage continues to influence local commerce and community life.
