Hello and thank you for joining our early morning walk. Today we are in Arundel within the county of West Sussex. Arundel is in the south-east of England, within the picturesque South Downs an area of chalk hills that covers 260 square miles along the south-eastern coastal counties. The time now is 6:50 am, sunrise is in 40 minutes at 7:30 am. It is the middle of November and there is a crisp chill in the air. As you can see the Christmas decorations have been put up! Today we started our walk in town on Tarrant Street, we are then heading out along the River Arun for a short while. After the river we head back into town, walk via some residential areas towards Arundel Cathedral. During our walk we catch glimpses of Arundel Castle, currently closed until April 2022. Arundel is a two hour drive from central London, depending on traffic. It is approximately a 1 Hour 30 minute train journey from London, Victoria Station. The seaside resorts Littlehampton, Bognor Regis and Worthing are within easy driving distance. In a 2011 census Arundel was recorded having 4,298 residents. In 2021 property prices averaged £476,804, roughly £2,000 over the national average in England. Arundel is a very well preserved town with lots of history. It also prides its self on its independent shops, contemporary art galleries, restaurants and cafes. In 2017 Arundel was also named the top mindful destination to visit in the UK. There are lots of outdoor experiences to enjoy, like walking across the South Downs, cycling or paddle boarding on the River Arun. 2017s Wonder Woman film was filmed at Arundel Castle, for the New York castle scenes. The Young Victoria (2009), with Emily Blunt and the The Madness of King George (1994), with Nigel Hawthorne were also filmed at Arundel. Looking back Arundel was an important market town during Roman and Saxon times. For nearly 1000 years Arundel’s port along the river was the lifeblood of the town, importing exporting goods. Arundel Castle was built by the Normans and is perfectly situated overlooking the town to see any oncoming invasions. The castle is a restored and remodelled medieval castle with parts dating back to 1068. The castle and cathedral (that we will see later on) are both Grade 1 listed buildings. The architectural style of the cathedral is French Gothic, designed by Joseph Aloysius Hansom. Building work commenced on the cathedral in 1868 commissioned by the Duke of Norfolk, who holds the seat of Arundel Castle. Thank you for joining in and walking along today. I hope you enjoyed finding out some information about the area also. There were some truly special moments this morning that I felt deep gratitude to experience, like the sun rising over the river. I have done my best to capture these moments by stopping to adjust the aperture on the camera. I hope these soft fades in-between cuts don’t interrupt the flow of the video. Please like the video and subscribe. Do leave a comment, it is lovely to hear from people all over the world. You can also follow me on instagram. If you ever feel like buying me a virtual coffee there is a link on my RU-vid page, please do not feel obliged though. It simply gives me great pleasure to share my experiences and make places like this more accessible to people. I hope you enjoy the rest of the walk and we’ll be going out for another stroll soon x
