Mobile tyre fitting in BN6
Hassocks, Hurstpierpoint and Ditchling
Hassocks and Hurstpierpoint share a railway line and a run of lanes that are unkind to low-profile tyres.
Ditchling sits under its beacon. Keymer is strung along the same street as Hassocks. Clayton is where the old road climbs over the Downs. Albourne, Sayers Common, Goddards Green, Newtimber, Streat and Westmeston are the quieter names, and they are where you meet flint and a soft verge instead of a kerb.
BN6 on the ground
Town, edge and open road
There is no town column in BN6: every name here is a village, so the edge holds the whole district. The open road is the A23 as it passes Newtimber, Albourne and Sayers Common, and that dual carriageway is the most exposed place to stop in this district.

Stopped on the A27, the A23 or the A259?
The A23 is the reason BN6 is on the way to Brighton rather than a dead end. A car stopped on that dual carriageway should get behind the barrier if it safely can. The A27 is to the south, under the scarp. The A259 is the coast, and you will not see it from Ditchling.
