About

Goring ward lies in the north-west of Worthing, stretching inland from the coastal strip to the A27. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of housing from different periods, with quiet suburban streets and local shopping parades serving the community. Its western boundary is formed by the Ferring Rife, a watercourse that flows to the sea.

The seafront is dominated by the wide greensward of Goring Green, leading to a shingle beach. Inland, the ward contains several notable green spaces, including Goring Hall's grounds and the recreational fields around the Worthing Leisure Centre. The historic St. Mary's Church, with its distinctive flint tower, sits at the heart of the old village settlement.
