The Old Shoreham Tollbridge was built across the River Adur in 1782 and until 1970 carried the A27 across the river. It closed to traffic in 1970, but is open to foot traffic. It is a Grade II* listed structure. LinkExternal link

River Adur (provided by Paul Gillett)

The river was formerly navigable for large vessels up as far as Steyning, where there was a large port, but over time the river valley became silted up and the port moved down to the deeper waters nearer the mouth in Shoreham-by-Sea. LinkExternal link
