The road has its origins as an old droveway that ran from Keymer village north to the great common on Haywards Heath. At this point it ran through Valebridge Common part of which survives as Bedelands Nature Reserve. The common was enclosed in 1828 and the road was straightened though development had to wait until the sale of Theobalds estate in 1920 for the houses either side to be built.
