    West Worthing separates the town Centre from Goring by Sea. Originally intended as an exclusive resort, the township of West Worthing was developed from around 1864 and merged with the formerly separate township of Worthing in 1890, when Worthing gained borough status. The area comprised of 15,000 residents as of the last census date. It’s proximity to the town centre, bars, cafe’s, restaurants and the beach make this a popular residential area.
