As we have mentioned before, the Manor Road Garage and its four petrol pumps picked up grade II listing status back in 2007, but the art deco building actually dates from around 1934, operating as a working garage until 1973.

Now it has been converted to apartments, possibly a wise move as the building is just a 10-minute stroll from the beach, which is perhaps why this one is being used as a holiday home. It’s also within striking distance of Chichester, Goodwood Races, Arundel Castle and Brighton too.
