Thorney Island Gate

Thorney Island Gate
Jutting out into Chichester Harbour, access to the island is through a pair of gates, one on each side. This is due to the presence of a Royal Artillery base, who took it over from the Royal Air Force; a runway remains, though I don't think it sees any regular use.

You have to be buzzed through both gates onto and off if you are taking the circular walk around the island.

It looks forbidding, but it's simple enough to just buzz and go through (though I understand that access is occasionally not possible).

Thanks for all the comments.
