Cobbetts Mead, Lyoth Common
The name of the road in the foreground which begins at the junction of Charlesworth Park to the left with Orchid Park straight ahead. The latter are named after Charlesworth Nursery which occupied the site from the early 20th century to the 1950s and became well known for the cultivation of orchids. Prior to their arrival the area had been a common that was gradually encroached upon between the 17th and 19th centuries leaving only a narrow strip by the time of the 1843 tithe survey. Formerly a part of Wivelsfield parish this area was transferred to Haywards Heath in 1934.
