Bosham is featured in the Bayeux tapestry, mentioned as a stopping point for Harold and his army on the way to meet William (later "the conqueror"). This reproduction of a section of the tapestry is on display in the church.
I wouldn't give much for the survivability of the place when the sea levels rise though, and the lintels at the garden gates in the village speak of high tides from time to time.
The village sounds perfect, high tides notwithstanding.
