Peacehaven's youth club for nearly forty years built on the site of a former agricultural cottage known as Upper Hoddon. In my early teenage years around the late 1970s it was officially known as the youth club but nicknamed The Joff by those who used it, the nickname eventually becoming the official name still used thirty years on. Located at the point where Sutton Avenue becomes Roderick Avenue at the junction with Balcombe Road. The white building beyond was once a DIY shop but is now a private residence.
