Pruden & Smith, South Street

Image: © Simon Carey Taken: 23 Aug 2009

Goldsmiths and jewellers occupying the shop on the south east corner of Ditchling crossroads. The building actually contains three shops including Pruden & Smith, another to its left on Lewes Road which I neglected to remember and the pharmacy to the right in South Street. The building dates from the 1870s and was built on the site of the former Ditchling & Westmeston Parish Workhouse which closed its doors in 1873. To the left is Tudor Close one of the oldest buildings in Ditchling being a timber framed hall house refronted with brick and tile hanging dating back to the late 15th century.
