History
The ill-defined area of Cocking Causeway between Midhurst and Cocking has been marked on maps since the early 19th century.[2] In 1865 a large funeral procession assembled at Cocking Causeway for Richard Cobden, who had lived nearby at Dunford. He was buried at West Lavington church,[3] whose parish at that time included the eastern part of the Causeway, whilst the western part fell into Cocking parish.[4][5]
