Once a dip in the cliffs allowing access to then River Adur for the villagers of Portslade. Also a popular landing place for smugglers before the area became built up. Later became the site of a small ferry to the gas works on the far side of the canal. Now the junction of Wellington Road (A259) and Church Road (B2139).
