On the 75th Anniversary of D Day I received this interesting information on the effects of World War II on the Parish of Earnley – Do you have any other stories you can add? 

The Parish Council covers the communities of Earnley, Almodington, Batchmere and Somerley.  The Parish has just over 400 registered electors and is situated about six miles south of Chichester on the coast of Sussex.

The Parish Council exists to serve the community from which it is elected.  Whilst the Council has limited powers, the Council is able to influence decisions that affect YOU.  The Council is there to represent the Parish on matters such as planning, highways and drainage.  The Parish Council welcomes the views of the Parishioners at any time and particularly at Parish Council Meetings.
