Looking along the B2192 as it heads southwards through the hamlet of Halland. Acacia Cottage on the right is the former post office whilst beyond are Hall's Cottages which were built towards the end of the 19th century along with much of the western side of the road. The hamlet originally grew up around a couple of farms located at a crossroads which is now the A22/B2192 junction and for many years was known as The Nursery after the main local industry until the GPO requested a name change to avoid confusion in deliveries and the locals settled on the name of the former nearby mansion.
