Stonepound Crossroads, Hassocks
Looking south. The A273 was built as a turnpike towards the end of the 18th century to cater for the increasing popularity of Brighton. Stonepound Gate was where the tolls were collected for those heading south. Hassocks, like Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill owes its existence to the railways. When the station was built it was to service the nearby village of Keymer, Hassocks as an entity did not exist.

Signpost at Stonepound Crossroads
These days very much secondary to the more modern signage, this delightful wooden fingerpost has been retained at the busy crossroads where the A273 meets the B2116. Signposts of this design can be found across Sussex: see also Image
