An unmade road that provides access to the houses and caravan park on Rushy Hill. Now a restricted byway the road was the original road to Newhaven which was replaced by the current route of the A259 when that road was turnpiked in the early 19th century to lessen the gradient for coaches. The junction with Blakeney Avenue is to the left whilst the TV transmitter is visible in the distance.
