II. On the Term Lavant. By the Honourable Daines Barrington. In a Letter to the Rev. Dr. Milles, President of the Society of Antiquaries, London
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 July 2012
Extract
Camden takes notice that the city of Chichester “is washed on every side but the North by the little river Lavant [a]” to which Philemon Holland adds “the course of which stream is very unaccountable, being sometimes quite dry, but at other times (and that often in the midst of summer) so full as to run with some violence.”
