The B2028 heads south towards the junction with Summerhill Lane and Image beyond which is Haywards Heath. The road name is the sole reminder of the former common it once crossed, bounded by Summerhill Lane to the west, Hickmans Lane to the east and Sunte Avenue to the north. Marked on a 1813 OS map it had been enclosed by the time of Lindfield's 1845 tithe map. Ribbon development along the road was largely carried out between the wars.
