The road was built in the 1880s to connect this part of the Stanford's estate with their manor house at Preston. Initially rural in character it is now built up. This stretch is part of the road south of Old Shoreham Road (A270) that turns west to connect with The Drive (B2186). If I had waited 30 seconds longer I would have caught a squirrel crossing the road by the road markings.
