Bishopstone Road
The public highway to Bishopstone and Norton passes the eastern end of Rookery Hill estate. The flint wall on the left is listed and was built to protect the drive to Bishopstone Place which was the original use of this road. Public access to Bishopstone during the medieval period went via Denton and Poverty Bottom before continuing eastwards via Silver Lane to East Blatchington then Seaford.

Rookery Hill
The name of the estate built on the hill of the same name. Parts were begun in the late 1930s but the vast majority was not completed until the early 1970s. In the foreground is the former tidal inlet that once connected Bishopstone to the sea whilst between that and the houses a long flint wall is visible a relic from the time Bishopstone Road was little more than a drive to Bishopstone Place. Taken about half an hour after sunrise.
