Viewed from the junction with Sloe Lane. The street was once the main highway linking Alfriston to Lewes but was downgraded during the early 19th century when a new turnpike was built that is currently the A27. The one-storey flint building to the left is Blacksmith's Lodge, the former village forge, whilst the large semi detached houses beyond were built in the first decade of the 20th century.
