Chichester is a local government district in West Sussex, England. Its council is based in the city of Chichester. Other places include Fishbourne, Wittering and Selsey.
The dignity and privileges of the City of Chichester are vested in its town council (which is therefore known as Chichester City Council, and covers only 10.6 km²), and not in the District Council which covers over 70 times this area.
