Posthorses
The name of the cul de sac that lies off London Road, the former A24. The close was built after the bypass opened as the land between the former and latter courses of the A24 were developed. The name derives from the nearby former Swan Inn, the first major staging post on the Worthing to London turnpike.

London Road
The straight nature of the road is due to its course being marked out when the former Ashington Common, which it crossed, was enclosed in 1816. From that enclosure comes the origins of the modern village of Ashington which eventually built itself up around it, despite this part actually being in the parish of Washington until 1960. An important route in the age of coaching it retained this during the age of the motor car becoming the A24 which for many years was clogged by traffic until the construction of the bypass in the mid 1990s finally bought peace to the centre of the village. The houses on the left are Forge House, The Smithy and Anvil House built on the site of the former village blacksmith. The older dwellings beyond are Blacksmiths Cottages.
