Bognor Regis West Sussex

A popular seaside resort located in the English county of West Sussex, Bognor Regis has a population of over 60,000 and was formerly just called “Bognor”, existing as a fishing village up until the 18th century when it was developed as a fashionable tourist resort. The “Regis” was added to the name after King George V used the resort for his convalescence in 1929, his supposed last words “bugger Bogner” are thought to have been misquoted. Bognor Regis Map.
