About

West Worthing occupies the western edge of Worthing's seafront, the area running from the end of the central promenade toward the town boundary. The coastline here is backed by a shingle beach and a line of groynes that mark the long, straight profile of the shore. Housing is mainly terraces and semi-detached streets that step up from the sea, with small local shopping parades and pockets of open space set into the residential grid. The pattern of streets reflects late Victorian and interwar development rather than recent infill.

Transport is anchored by West Worthing railway station on the West Coastway Line, which provides direct rail links along the south coast and to inland connections. Local buses run along the seafront and through the neighbourhood, serving schools, shops and sports facilities. Community life centres on the esplanade, the station precinct and a handful of long-standing pubs and cafes. Along the promenade a cast-iron bandstand shelter and a sequence of beach access ramps are visible signs of the seafront’s continuous public use.
