Minor road linking Upper Dicker to the A22. Its straight route is due to it being an enclosure road planned with a ruler by those responsible for enclosing Dicker Common in 1813. The houses on the left are Crossways Cottages built in the first decade of the 20th century to a design made by Sir Horatio Bottomley, who resided in nearby Crossway House and effectively acted as squire to the small village between 1889 when he arrived and 1929 when he departed after his fourth bankruptcy. The drive to Clifton Farm, Bottomley's horse racing stables until 1922, are to the left.
