All four of these churches marked early river landing points from the Adur. Botolphs and Beeding marked Saxon fords or early bridges.

The existence of Lower Beeding led to differentiation in the name of the original Beeding in some medieval sources, but always as River Beeding. For this reason the prefix Upper is still ignored by many local people today, who refer to their community by the original (and current ecclesiastical) title of Beeding.
