Originally a small common around which grew a small settlement called Walberton Green, occasionally known as West Walberton. The development of the village of Walberton meant the two joined sometime in the early 20th century and are now one settlement. It officially became a village green in 1967 which includes the area to the right, the pond and a small patch of grass to the left. The wooden Jubilee Arch was erected in 1935 though it was taken down for safety reasons in the 1960s then returned in 1982. Barnham Lane continues straight ahead to Barnham, West Walberton Lane is the first on the right in front of the arch and heads north to Fontwell, whilst Eastergate Lane heads east to the A29 to the north of Eastergate.
