 Lavant
is a medium size rural parish with
an electorate of approximately 1300 and at present a precept of £19,000.
The parish is just north of
Chichester
on either side of the
A286 Midhurst Rd.
Further details of
the component parts of this village and its facilities can be found in
the Village Design Statement. The
Community is a vibrant one served well by its pubs, restaurants,
schools, shop, churches and above all its Village Hall. The
closeness of Goodwood adds to the activities in
the parish.
Lavant is to be
found in a very attractive part of West Sussex and yet it is within easy
reach of major urban centres on the coast from Brighton to
Southampton
. The close proximity of Chichester means access to transport both
train and bus with direct links to
Gatwick
Airport
and
London
, Brighton and
Portsmouth
and also links across country to the West Country, the
Midlands
and the North.
Nearby
parishioners can of course use the varied commercial, leisure and
entertainment facilities of
Chichester
without too much difficulty. The coast is also very close at
Bosham and the Chichester Harbour area, the Witterings, Selsey and
Bognor Regis.
