Image: © Simon Carey Taken: 25 Oct 2015

A side street off Lewes Road that was developed in the 1850s. The section in view is the south-north section and shows the original Victorian terraces in the foreground. Where they end is where the Lewes Road Viaduct once crossed the street (It did again to the north). The line closed in 1971 but the viaduct remained with the last section removed in 1983.
