Lucastes Avenue, HAYWARDS HEATH, RH16 1JE

Currently a cul de sac off Paddockhall Road that was developed in the 1960s though the road itself is much older having originally been marked out on the 1874 OS map where it is shaped like a crescent and has a southern junction with Butlers green Road adjacent to Image and now occupied by a house called Wychperry Bower that was built between the wars. By the 1897 edition the road had been reduced to its current length though no building took place along it until the 1960s.

A cul de sac off Lucastes Avenue which initially contained three cottages built between the wars including Culross Cottage whose timber framed gable can be seen on the right from which the road was named in the 1970s.

Built in the 1860s and once known as Holly House, it has been extended to the rear and converted into flats. Beyond is the junction with Milton Road.

Currently home to Mid Sussex District Council though there are talks about moving to another site in Perrymount Road. Built in the 1860s as a large villa it was acquired in 1933 along with the grounds to become the administrative headquarters of Cuckfield Urban District Council which was instituted in 1934 and covered much of modern Haywards Heath. The building was extended in the 1960s with extensions either side and after the local government reorganisation in 1974 became the administrative centre for the newly constituted district of Mid Sussex.
