Image: © Simon Carey Taken: 14 Oct 2012
This small section of cliff is the last remaining segment of a field as named in Telscombe's 1842 tithe map. A remnant of a field boundary can still be made out prior to the land dipping down towards the Smuggler's Rest public house. The rest of the field which ran northwards to what is now the A259 has now been built upon by houses that lie on and between Fairlight Avenue and Sussex Way. On the right is a now closed public lavatory whilst the line of cliffs can be followed back to Brighton whilst the green space to the right is Telscombe Tye a piece of common land that separates Telscombe Cliffs and Saltdean.
