Another farm located on the border of Ditchling Common. Farms would often supplement their small fields by using the common for much needed pasture. This farm would have originated some time in the 15th or 16th centuries when the land, a former deer park called Frankbarrow, to the west of the common was disparked and enclosed. The bridleway to World's End heads off to the left.
