A byway that links Warren Road to Falmer Road, the B2123, which follows the route of an ancient droving route that once linked Lewes to Brighton across the drier ridge of the Downs. Between Newmarket Hill and Southover it is known as Juggs Road named after the baskets the wives of Brighton fisherman carried containing the fresh fish they intended to sell at Lewes market.
