In May Lewes District Council granted planning permission for ASDA to build a new supermarket along with 400 new homes and a new access road for the ferry terminal. This area has long been set aside for development of some sort and various schemes have been put forward over time, however, there are questions about this scheme as it does nothing to address the real problems of Newhaven, namely a decrepit port and a near dead High Street which encourages those who use the ferries to drive straight through it. The new supermarket will be less than a mile away from Sainsbury's and Lidl and in all likelihood will encourage drivers to the supermarket but not to the nearby town. The ferry, Seven Sisters, is visible. See also Image
