Benfield Valley Golf Course
This is the ninth hole of nine on a course that was laid out in the early 1990s using some of the older abandoned fairways of West Hove Golf Course. The latter relocated to land north of the A27 when that road was constructed having been split in two by it and lost some more land to the Hangleton Link Road. The view takes in Foredown Tower on the left and Southwick Hill in the distance on the right.

Underneath the Arches
This path requires some bending of the knees to duck under the low lying foliage. The chimney is the only remaining structure left standing of a row of late Victorian agricultural labourer's cottages that were built on the site of Benfield Manor Farm that was demolished in 1871.

Car Park, Benfield Valley Golf Course
The 9 hole golf course is situated in the northern part of Benfield Valley using some of the fairways vacated by West Hove Golf Course when it relocated north of the A27. The chimney in view is one of the few structural remains of a row of late 19th century agricultural labourer's cottages that were built on the site of Benfield Manor Farm which was demolished in 1871.

Entrance to the Benfield Valley Golf Course
This 9 hole course uses some of the old West Hove Golf Course holes.
With the building of the Brighton Bypass and the subsequent link road, the West Hove Golf Club were relocated to north of the bypass. The former clubhouse was south of the present Sainsbury's car park.

Benfield Barn
A late 18th century flint barn that is the only survivor from Benfield Manor Farm which operated from here from the late 16th century to 1871 when the farmhouse was demolished and replaced by a row of agricultural labourer's cottages. They in turn have nearly gone, the lone chimney on the right along with the concealed foundations being the only thing left of them. The barn is currently the clubhouse for the Benfield Valley Golf Course.

Roundabout, Hangleton Link Road
Other than the entrance to Sainsbury's further south the only access points to the A293, from the west is Fox Way that links the suburb of Mile Oak and to the east Hangleton Lane which leads to the suburb of Hangleton. Not surprisingly after 8-10 inches of snow fell overnight there is very little traffic on this normally busy route.
