west end

Well, who knew that Worthing has a West End. We now live just on the edge of it in Heene district. Back in the early 19th century settlement was in Heene village and in an area known as Little Heene.The area apparently had a reputation for wildness and lawlessness and the Commissioners in the new town of Worthing to the east erected a wall at the Heene-Worthing boundary to keep the 'lawless' of Heene out of the civilised east. We'll try to keep up the tradition of wildness.
