About Autumn Lectures: The Story of Chanctonbury Ring

Chanctonbury Ring has long been associated with the Devil and other spooky goings-on, but what is the true tale behind this prominent and well-loved site? From Bronze Age enclosure to Roman religious centre, join our curator James for a talk on the long and storied past of this most famous of Sussex landmarks.

A full programme of eight talks delivered by our curator, James Sainsbury, including four brand new lectures. These talks cover everything from the Prehistoric archaeology of Worthing and the wider area, to the dawn of photography and the development of the town in the 19th and 20th centuries.
