The Upper Drive
The road was built in the 1880s to connect this part of the Stanford's estate with their manor house at Preston. Initially rural in character it is now built up. This stretch is part of the road south of Old Shoreham Road (A270) that turns west to connect with The Drive (B2186). If I had waited 30 seconds longer I would have caught a squirrel crossing the road by the road markings.

Wilbury Villas
This is the northern end of the road which once formed a fiveway junction with Old Shoreham Road and The Upper Drive but has long since been blocked off. The house on the right has been extended across two to form an office housing the head office of Early Years nursery. Visibility towards the far end of the road has been reduced due to a sea fret that has moved in the hour or so before sunset.

Viewed from the junction of Old Shoreham Road and The Upper Drive. The road was originally a farm track which was laid out towards the end of the 19th century though the first houses did not appear until the first decade of the 20th. The northern end of the road has been cut off from the other two roads.
