The main route through the village of Upper Dicker which has its origins linking the former common with Berwick and Alfriston to the south. Part of the road dates back to the Roman period though the straight route here is due to planned design following enclosure of the last section of the common in 1855. The road was the B2108 until the 1970s when it was downgraded to C status. The houses on the immediate left are Rosemary and Livingstone Villa whilst beyond are Firle House and Carlton House designed and built during Horatio Bottomley's sojourn in the village.
