New Inn, (1)Beach, (2)Beach Houses, (3)Middle Street,

All of the addresses are one and the same building, the different addresses
reflect the changes to the area as it developed from its original cluster of
building around Surrey House to finally linking to the road network radiating
out from the expanding Littlehampton. *
Built in the early 1800s this was at one time a coaching inn. **
