Beyond the wall is Gerald Road, turning right at the top of Cliff Road Image The flat roofs of Cliff Close houses can be seen to the left of the pillar. Old maps show that between 1899, before Cliff Road was developed, and 1950 there was a property on the cliff some way behind the camera, named on a 1927 map as Cliff Cottage. By 1963 it had gone; there was just a drive. There seems no reason to doubt that this was the entrance to the property. The location is now an informal piece of ground leading to a viewpoint and the lower slopes of Seaford Head.
