Rustington Edge

Transitional zone between Littlehampton and Rustington with shared facilities

The eastern boundary of Littlehampton merges gradually into the village of Rustington, and the area along this boundary shares characteristics of both communities. The housing here includes properties from various periods, and residents may use the shops, schools and facilities of both Littlehampton and Rustington depending on convenience and preference. Mewsbrook Park sits in this transitional zone, providing a shared green space that serves both communities. The seafront promenade runs continuously through the area, and the boundary between the two places is invisible to walkers and cyclists following the coastal path. Rustington has its own shops, library, community facilities and identity, and the relationship between the two communities is close and generally harmonious.
