Lewes Magistrates Court
Built in the 1980s on the site of the first Lewes railway station opened in 1846. Awkward turning meant that by 1857 this station was closed and a newer one built to the south. The building and the track survived as a goods yard until the 1960s when the tracks were dismantled and the station demolished in 1967. Prior to the arrival of the station the site had once been occupied by a Franciscan Friary.

Friars Walk
The B2193 which runs southwards to Southover. The road name is a corruption of Friars Wall which originally was a boundary of a friary run by the Greyfriars which occupied the area on the right between the roundabout and Lewes High Street. The friary was built in the 13th century and was demolished after the dissolution and replaced by a mansion known as The Friars. This survived until the 19th century when it too was demolished to make way for the original Lewes railway station that opened in 1846 as a terminus from Brighton. As the local railway network was extended the alignment of the original station became untenable and it was replaced in 1857 by the first of a number of layouts on the current station site. The old station became the main offices for the goods yard and remained in use until it too followed its predecessors and was demolished in 1968 and replaced by the current building which is home to the local magistrates court.
