^{*************}

^{Angmering is a large village and civil parish between Littlehampton and Worthing in West Sussex just to the south of the South Downs National Park, England. It is 1.5 miles (2.4 km) north of the English Channel; Worthing and Littlehampton are 3.5 miles (5.6 km) to the east and west respectively. Its roots stretch back to the Bronze Age and there is the site of a substantial Roman Villa and bath house. About two-thirds of the parish (mostly above the A27 road) fall within the South Downs National Park. In 1976, Angmering was twinned with the Normandy town of Ouistreham-Riva-Bella, the location of WW2 'Sword Beach'.[3].}

^{Angmering railway station is ​3⁄₄ mile from the village centre straddling the boundaries of Angmering and East Preston. Angmering is home to the Oval Raceway or Angmering Motor Sports Centre.[4] Worthing Rugby Football Club, a national level professional rugby club, occupies extensive grounds in the east of the village.}

^{Angmering Football Club play their home games at the Recreation Field in Decoy Drive. They play in the West Sussex Football League.}

^{The name "Angmering" probably derives from a Saxon farming settlement of about 600AD. It is thought that the original name was "Angenmaering" meaning Angenmaer's people. Various name changes took place over the centuries and these included Angemeringatun, Angmerengatum, Angemaeringum, Angemeringe, Aingmarying, Angmarrying, Angemare and Ameringe. Towards the end of the 9th century Alfred the Great, King of Wessex, bequeathed to his kinsman Osferthe ‘... Angmerengatum and the land that thereto longyth’.[5]}

^{The parish is about seven miles (10 km) long (from north to south) and two miles (3  km) wide. Its roots stretch back to the Bronze Age and it is also the site of a substantial Roman Villa.}

^{At the top of Angmering is Highdown Hill, a National Trust property with free access for walks and picnics on the smooth grass near the still-visible slopes of a former chalk quarry.}

^{The village has a 12th-century church (St Margaret's, re-built by Samuel Sanders Teulon in 1852, and reordered (refurbished) in 2009), three schools, several small shops, a post office and many historic houses from the 15th century onwards. It is in a semi-rural area with many farms. Following the building of the Bramley Green development, Angmering is the most populous settlement in the Arundel and South Downs (UK Parliament constituency).}
