A view of the road heading east from Portland Avenue before it turns north to Portland Road, see Image, with Woodhouse Close in view at the corner. The road in the foreground was once the site of Wish Cottage which was located in the south east corner of a detached portion of Portslade parish. The cottage was built sometime in the 19th century, it isn't marked on the 1813 OS map but does appear on Portslade's 1840 tithe map. The cottage survived until 1927 before it was demolished to make way for Woodhouse Road.
