Horsham Road, STEYNING, BN44 3BF

A cul de sac containing sheltered housing that was constructed in 1990 on the former site of Steyning Gas Works. The works had been established by the late 1850s but closed sometime in the 1960s or 70s though a gasholder remained here during the 1980s.

Built as a timber framed dwelling in the early 17th century. In 1678 it was purchased by the Quakers who turned into a meeting hall which was often visited by William Penn who resided for a while at Warminghurst to the north west of Steyning. The building was converted into a house around 1886 though sometime in the 1970s the then owners, themselves Quakers, opened their house to worshippers. The building is now subdivided into two dwellings, the northern part being known as Penn's Cottage.

The picture was taken from the intersection of Horsham Road and Church Street looking north east. This street is situated in the south eastern section of the grid square.

This charming cottage is a National Trust holiday cottage. It is situated in Church Street in the south eastern section of the grid square. Originally, all the houses in this village resembled this style of building. In later times it became unfashionable to live in timber frame buildings and owners put brick and mortar facades on.

The church is situated in the south eastern section of the grid square.

Looking down to the town of Steyning in the Horsham District.

Built in the first half of the 19th century and placed at a right angle to the road it is the easternmost of a terrace of four.

A cul de sac off Tanyard Lane that was built in the 1960s and named after GW Breach the firm who ran a nearby tannery from the early 19th century to its closure in 1941.

Marked on a 1791 town plan of Steyning providing access to a field called the Shooting Field. On Steyning's 1841 tithe map it was given the name of Gatewick Lane but remained undeveloped. By the 1876 OS map Image had been built which most likely accounts for its current name. The lane was subsequently developed from the 1920s onwards.

The western end of the main village street just before it heads out of town. In the distance is the old poorhouse built in the 16th century and on the junction of High Street, Horsham Road and Mouse Lane, the latter being the ancient western route out of town before being superseded by a turnpike in the early 19th century that is the current A283.
