Bosham
Local pub
This is the road when the tide is out
Thursday spent the day at Bosham (pronounced Bozzum). Qiaint English fishing village. It's not very big but really beautiful. There's a saxon church that has been modified throughout the centuries. Very interesting. King Canute who became King of a united England in 1016 also would stay here. His 8yr old daughter drowned in a nearby river and was buried inside the church. The church was amazing. The local pass time is watching cars parked on a frontage road along the waters edge which floods at high tide and has large signs stating this, but somehow tourist miss the signs are choose to ignore them. So the bet is laid whether the owner will return before the car is flooded. Lots of quaint houses, very expensive houses. One of the smallest there sold for over 1 million pounds. Great day.
