Penn Crescent, Haywards Heath

Running in a crescent shape north of Washington Road and developed sometime between 1947 and 1955 on the northern end of Bent's Wood. Most of the road names in this part of Haywards Heath, that was originally in the parish of Lindfield up to the 1930s, either have connections to America, the name given to the former smallholding settlement set up by William Allen, or quakers, which Allen was one, or indeed Allen himself. The exceptions are Barn Cottage Lane and Bentswood Crescent named after local places.
