Metal gate at end of Monks Way, South Malling
Beyond is Hamsey Church and to the left where the scrub is lies the old railway line from Lewes to Uckfield closed over forty years ago. Since then there have been various projects to reopen the line, though in the present economical climate it is very unlikely to happen. Indeed, it could be argued that the project was always unlikely due to insufficient traffic between the two towns and as an unviable alternative rail route.

Lewes Castle
If one stood here on 14th May 1264, one would see the Battle of Lewes raging in front between Henry III and the rebel barons led by Simon de Montfort. Henry lost and sought refuge in the priory. Next day he signed the Mise of Lewes, which gave Simon de Montfort a lot of power over the king.
