Lost Worthing Tours - A chance to investigate the streets, buildings, green spaces, and whole areas that have disappeared from Brighton’s near neighbour (and rival) forever. We will see whether the sea, the Luftwaffe, Worthing Council, fire or developers did most damage to Worthing’s heritage in this 1½hr walking tour. £7.50 adults - £5 children.

Royal Worthing Tours - Just how important was the Royal Family to the creation of Worthing as a seaside resort? How strong are Worthing’s links with the Royals? Does the town perhaps deserve the name ‘Worthing Regis’ as a town patronised by royalty or is it a town of insignificance to the Royals throughout history? £7.50 adults - £5 children.

Spooky Worthing Tours – Halloween and Saturday either side of Halloween - £7.50 adults/ £5 children – starts 7.pm at Worthing Pier. Just how haunted is Worthing apparently compared to other Sussex settlements? Can there be any truth in local claims of sightings of the undead and mysterious happenings? Join Victorian Spectre Mortimer Spirimawgus (who escaped from Brighton during the first Churchill Square years and now haunts Worthing) to discover whether you will survive terrifying twittens, the terrible typhoid, witness The Grey Lady or the ghost boy who brought cups of tea? Most of all, will the woeful wailing of Worthing happen again as we pass a gruesome graveyard? Spooky Worthing returns for its sixth year this October and to book your place call 07504 863867 or email info@allinclusivehistory.org. Brighton’s ghost tours are great, but Worthing’s are weirder!
