Evening view to Ella Nore
Evening view to Ella Nore
Looking across from New Lipchis Way close to its junction with Ella Nore Lane to the spit of land called Ella Nore, the sun was setting late on a June evening. Numerous small boats were moored or at anchor in Chichester Harbour at the head of Snowhill Creek beyond.
Ella Nore

Ella Nore is a sand and shingle bank to the west of the village of West Wittering. It projects into the southernmost end of the Chichester Channel as it enters Stockers Lake, itself part of Chichester Harbour.
It is a short spit of land enclosing saltings, marsh and mud. The eastern tip of it is a nature conservation area where entry is not permitted so as to protect the nesting area of the numerous species of birds that thrive in this habitat.
The area is rich in wildlife with the mud providing rich pickings for sea and marshland birds such as gulls, ducks, geese and waders such as curlews; all of which can be heard and seen in this unspoilt location.
