Until the 1970s this was the B2109 and the lesser of the two routes heading north out of Newhaven. When the Lewes by-pass was built it was redesignated the A26 and improved to stop heavy lorries heading up what was then the A275 on the western side of the Ouse Valley and through Lewes. The minor road to the right follows the old course of the road through the village.
