This was the S bound carriageway of the A23 trunk road before a bypass was built for Handcross Primary School (and other properties to the N of the village). The original road was reverted to single carriageway (along the old N bound lane) and reclassified as B2115. The unrequired carriageway was broken up and reclaimed by bramble, hawthorn, and other native invasive flora.
