The Ferring Rife

The Ferring Rife is a short stream in Sussex, that rises in the West Durrington area of Worthing, between the South Downs and the sea. It has multiple sources including one near Castle Goring and another in Titnore Wood. The word 'rife' is a Sussex dialect word for a stream, especially found between Selsey and Worthing.

The streams converge that make up the Ferring Rife converge north of Littlehampton Road, passing through Maybridge, then west of Ferring into the sea. It flows south-west, west and then south into the English Channel, between the villages of Ferring and East Preston.
