Dist:0.4km<br/>This old West Sussex County Council (WSCC) signpost is in a triangular island on Rackham Street at its junction with a lane to Greatham. Curiously at the end of the lane in Greatham is [[1500000]] which shows Amberley one way, down the lane to here, and Storrington another, whereas here they are in the same direction... Anyway the full directions, reading like the results in Division 7 of the West Sussex Football League, are: Amberley 2 Storrington 3 (to the right) Greatham 2 Coldwaltham 3 (to the left) and finally the delightfully named Wiggonholt 2 to the far left.
