St Symphorian's Church, Durrington

The church sits tucked away in Durrington, just north of Worthing, and it's one of those places you'd easily drive past without noticing. St Symphorian's is a proper medieval building - the sort of solid Sussex parish church that's been doing its job quietly for centuries. The interior is modest but genuine, with the kind of worn stone and simple fixtures you'd expect from a 12th-century foundation.

It's mainly worth a stop if you're into old churches or local history rather than dramatic architecture. You won't spend more than half an hour here, which is fine - it's the sort of place that rewards a brief wander rather than sustained attention. The churchyard itself is pleasant enough for a quick look around.

Families won't find much to hold their interest unless the kids are keen on grave rubbings or learning how villages used to work. It's really for the church enthusiasts and those doing the rounds of Sussex's medieval buildings. If you're camping at Onslow Caravan Park or Brook Lane just down the road, it's a decent short walk to stretch your legs rather than a planned destination.

Locally, you're close enough to Worthing for the bigger attractions, but St Symphorian's itself is the kind of quiet spot that makes sense if you're already in the area exploring. Admission details aren't clearly publicised, so check before you visit - most churches like this are open but worth ringing ahead.
