Anywhere decent for a learner flyer near Chichester?

Hi all,

I am a keen photographer and have recently invested in a Mavic 2 pro for some nice ariel shots. However, so far I am finding a bit of difficulty scouting for places to fly my drone in the Chichester area. There is an FRZ covering most of the town and the countryside north and then alot of farmland surrounding it, however its fairly compact and doesn’t provide alot of space to fly. Anyone have any nice locations they would like to share, where I might be able to practice without too much hassle from the public?

Halnaker is good, lots of space and not crowded. I also recently flew around Lakeside ( just south of Chichester which was interesting). Bognor also a good spot and not too far

I’ve also flown at Halnaker with no problems.
