New Road
The modern B2112 was constructed as a turnpike in 1830 linking Ditchling with other routes travelling towards Brighton. The new road effectively bypassed the old route over Ditchling Beacon turning that into a minor route. A straight road that is busy and fast with no verges for walkers hence wandering down the road at 6.30 on a Sunday morning. The sun's first rays are visible in the sky above a light cloud cover rapidly disappearing.

Ditchling
The crossroads at the centre of Ditchling. South Street leads to Brighton via Clayton or Ditchling Beacon, West Street heads towards Keymer, High Street (to the right) goes north to Haywards Heath whilst Lewes Road where the picture was taken speaks for itself. The South Street/High Street route was the part of the original London-Brighton turnpike constructed in 1770. I believe the blue car is a Rolls Royce though I have no idea of make or model.

Nevill Cottages
A post war estate located off Beacon Road in the southern part of the village of Ditchling. The name derives from the family name of the Dukes of Abergavenny who became landlords of the former Ditchling Park, a medieval deer park dating back to the times of King Alfred, in the late 16th century. They remained owners until the 20th century when an attempt to sell the land off for residential development was defeated.
