Medieval Cross near Middle Farm
A winter view of Image Looking at old maps it seems that the cross was moved to this position when the new course of the A27 was constructed during the 1960s, its old position was roughly where a bus stop and layby is located. The cross lies at an old crossroads where the east-west route from West Firle to Selmeston crossed the old droving road that is now Heighton Street and the lane to Ripe. Burgh Lane is the road in view with the A27 beyond the bank and trees to the left.

Remains of a Cross, near Firle
The road behind is Burgh Lane formerly the A27 until the road was straightened in the 1960s. I have no idea who erected the cross or how long it has stood, though much of the land to the immediate north of the South Downs in this area was once owned by Battle Abbey.

Firle Straight
The start of the section of the A27 known locally as Firle Straight begins from this point and continues up to the junction with the lane to West Firle. This road was constructed in the 1960s replacing the old narrow and winding Burgh Lane and Wick Street and necessitated the demolition of an old lodge that lay at the entrance to Heighton Street which is currently visible to the left. Mount Caburn is just visible through the trees.
