castle, much enlarged by the Dukes of Norfolk, along with their Roman Catholic cathedral, dominates this picturesque hill town, giving it a distinctly French character in distant views.The bridge over the River Arun

This tiny stretch, less than a mile long, is all that is left of the grandiose Portsmouth & Arundel Canal, which linked Ford on the River Arun with Chichester and Portsmouth Harbour.
We are on the navigable and tidal River Arun. The church of St John the Evangelist has a shingled broach spire; flint and stone are used for walling and buildings.
Broadbridge Mill is an ancient mill site by the River Arun. It was a prosperous business powered by two waterwheels that drove six pairs of millstones.
A Roman settlement on Stane Street and the navigable River Arun. The village encompasses riverside and hillside, and has a main line railway station. The 15th-century church is on the hillside.
Across the Arun we head north to Fittleworth, a village running north from the River Rother up to the Petworth to Pulborough road, now the A283.
Derwent Terrace, now the A6, runs alongside the river, faced by shops and with other houses spreading up the steep hillside.
An excursion craft passes the weir close to Lincomb Lock, now the most northern on the river.
Lynmouth's twin rivers run fast and furious, and no more so than in 1952, when it suffered a terrible tragedy.
South of Bakewell, the river runs through elegant parkland that forms the grounds of Haddon Hall. In this view, the lush nature of this wonderful valley is clearly illustrated.
Standing beside a bridge across the River Brun, from which the town takes its name, is Burnley Town Hall.
The river runs along a neat channel here, but perhaps the greatest interest is alongside on the road.
It is so called because the river running through the valley was known originally as the Dwr, an old British word simply meaning 'water'.
In the middle of Over and Nether Wallop, the river runs beside the road. To the north-east lies the Second World War airfield which has been the centre for army flying since 1958.
Burnley means 'the place by the river Brun'; the town snuggles in a valley between the rivers Calder and Brun.
