==Geography== The highest point in the civil parish is Steep Down at {{Convert|149|m}} above [[Ordnance Datum]] (sea level). In the western part of the parish of Sompting lies the Sompting Gap, a protected area that lies between Sompting and Worthing. This area was formerly an inlet of the sea and it is here that the Broadwater Brook (also known as Sompting Brook) flows into Brooklands Park and on into the sea. Some of the reedbeds in the Sompting Gap at Lower Cokeham have been designated a [[Site of Nature Conservation Importance]].<ref name="reeds">{{cite web|url=http://www.westsussex.gov.uk/ccm/content/environment/heritage-wildlife-and-landscape/west-sussex-character-project/land-management-guidelines-and-related-publications/sheet-sc11-littlehampton-and-worthing-fringes---sc13-worthing-and-adur-fringes---land-management-guidelines.en?page=4|archive-url=https://www.webarchive.org.uk/wayback/archive/20100602034659mp_/http://www.westsussex.gov.uk/ccm/content/environment/heritage%2Dwildlife%2Dand%2Dlandscape/west%2Dsussex%2Dcharacter%2Dproject/land%2Dmanagement%2Dguidelines%2Dand%2Drelated%2Dpublications/sheet%2Dsc11%2Dlittlehampton%2Dand%2Dworthing%2Dfringes%2D%2D%2Dsc13%2Dworthing%2Dand%2Dadur%2Dfringes%2D%2D%2Dland%2Dmanagement%2Dguidelines.en|archive-date=2 June 2010|url-status=dead|title=Biodiversity|date=17 February 2009|work=Sheet SC11: Littlehampton and Worthing Fringes / SC13 Worthing and Adur Fringes|publisher=West Sussex County Council|accessdate=17 April 2009}}</ref> Sompting is about {{convert|2|miles|0}} north-east of the centre of Worthing.
