Looking north on the former A27 heading out of Brighton on the road to Lewes. The roof of the former Preston Barracks can be seen behind the trees. The barracks once owned extensive tracts of land in the area but have been sold off to become DIY superstores. The last remaining building is now for sale for major redevelopment leaving the white building to the left as the sole building associated with the military. It was given the name Preston Barracks due to it being in the parish rather than the vicinity of the village. The white building behind the former barracks is part of the University of Brighton.
