Small residential settlement in the dry valley between Worthing and Findon village — a mix of 20th century development including post-war estate housing and some older rural-adjacent properties. The roofing requirements here are shaped by this specific combination of housing era, geography and coastal exposure.
Concrete interlocking tile on post-war stock; some clay on older properties. The valley position creates a specific microclimate distinct from both coastal Worthing and the exposed Findon ridge.
The valley position creates localised frost pockets and higher relative humidity than either Worthing or Findon due to cold air drainage settling in the valley floor. Mortar deterioration and moss growth are above average for the elevation. Properties on north-facing slopes see the fastest moss accumulation.
Cold air drains down the valley from the South Downs overnight, creating frost pockets more severe than coastal Worthing despite the modest elevation of 40–60m. Higher relative humidity than either the coast or the exposed ridge. North-facing slopes have significantly longer periods of damp than south-facing, accelerating moss and lichen growth on tile surfaces.
