      Designated Neighbourhood Area

      The SDNPA originally designated the Rogate and Rake Neighbourhood Area on 14 March 2013 following an application from Rogate Parish Council.

      In April 2019, Chichester District Council (CDC) amended the parish boundary in accordance with the recommendations of the Boundary Review Panel.  In doing so, three properties and a number of industrial units were transferred from Rogate Parish to Harting Parish.  The SDNPA designated the amended Rogate and Rake Neighbourhood Area on 01 October 2020.
