River Adur

The Adur is a river in West Sussex (in England). The Adur district of West Sussex is named for it. The river used to be navigable for large vessels up to the town of Steyning, where a large port used to be situated. However over time the river silted up its valley and the port moved to the deeper waters nearer the mouth in Shoreham-by-Sea.
