Green Wall
So named as the path once followed the course of the old town wall which would have been on the right hand side. It stretched much further to the north than its current ending at Wellington Street.

Warehouses, Phoenix Place
Empty warehouses standing on the site of the old Phoenix Ironworks which was redeveloped in the 1950s and 60s. The floods of 2000 affected this area badly and now Lewes Council are looking into redeveloping the area once more.

Course of the Lewes to Uckfield Railway
The line between Lewes to Uckfield was shut in 1969 ostensibly due to flooding but in reality due to Lewes Council wanting to build the Phoenix Causeway bypass. The railway travelled through the Cliffe part of Lewes on a viaduct and via embankments, the latter being too expensive to bridge, so some agreement was reached with British Railways to dismantle the line and sell the land, a decision still being felt today by those using the truncated line from Uckfield to London. It was roughly at this point that the railway crossed the river.
