The Columbus Point development at Sovereign Harbour South, Eastbourne, has one of the largest water features in Europe. The 310-metre-long, anchor-shaped concrete structure comprises channels, cascades, and fountains. It is crossed by pedestrian bridges and opened in December 2003.
Owners of 369 residential properties (houses and apartments) in the area are covenanted in their deeds to pay for the water feature's management, running and maintenance.
The water feature is owned, managed, and maintained by Columbus Point (Management Company) Limited (CPMCL), a company set up by the developer for this purpose. In 2015, the company was transferred from the developer to the collective control of the local covenanted property owners, who became members of the company. At the same time, the freehold of the water feature was transferred to CPMCL.
