Belmont Street

Street guide, Bognor Regis

Belmont Street connects the town centre to the area around Bognor Regis railway station, making it one of the key pedestrian routes for anyone arriving by train. The street has a mixed character, with some commercial premises near the town centre end and residential properties towards the station. Buildings are predominantly Victorian and Edwardian, reflecting the period when the railway arrived and the streets around the station were developed to serve the growing resort. Belmont Street is within walking distance of both the High Street shops and the seafront, and sits at the junction of the commercial and residential parts of the town. The street carries a moderate volume of traffic, including taxis and buses serving the station. The area around the station end has been the subject of periodic regeneration discussions.
