Dist:0.2km<br/>The name of the field according to Chiddingly's 1839 tithe map that was created after the enclosure of Dicker Common in 1813. The trees to the right mark the course of a green lane made at the enclosure and now a footpath linking Camberlot Road to Sheepcote Lane.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Many lanes and roads in this area of Sussex lead south to the pastures on the South Downs. With the arrival of the car many lanes were made up but some did not, lost their importance and now are bridleways or footpaths. This route begins deep in the Weald then heads south but stops at the A22, becoming a track until it reaches Chalvington Stud Farm before becoming a made up road again. What initially looks like a lane from the period of enclosures actually dates back to the Roman times. This view looks south and is taken the crossroads of tracks just south of the A22. See [[TQ5311]] for where the west track ends.

Dist:0.4km<br/>A surviving track from the former Dicker Common which failed to become macadamised. The bridge to the left marks the start of the footpath to Chalvington Stud Farm. The former lane runs from Camberlot Road to Sheepcote Lane. Despite it being designated as a footpath it seems to be used by motor vehicles and horses.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Looking north where the road from Chalvington turns left and heads for Golden Cross. Sheepcote Lane which turns right is a dead end but follows the route of the track from [[TQ5411]] before ending at Semeston Croft [[TQ5309]] and becoming a track again until reaching Chalvington. The northern route has not become a road and meets up with the track seen in TQ5411 a mile or so east.

Dist:0.6km<br/>The name of the field according to Chiddingly's 1839 tithe map that was created after the enclosure of Dicker Common in 1813. Named after a former windmill that stood on a nearby small rise it has now been split into two sections. This one to the south is filled with a large number of former vehicles and huge piles of broken up concrete meaning a detour as it covers the route of the footpath heading north. See also [[2770582]].

Dist:0.6km<br/>The name of the A22 from the junction with Nash Street, on the left, to the Boship Roundabout. The road was straightened across the former Dicker Common, from which it derives its name, when the road was turnpiked in the 18th century.
