These fields are now (2014) a housing estate known locally as the Penlands estate - built in the 1960s / 1970s. 'Penlands' comes from the Penn family who lived locally and who went onto found Pennsylvania in the USA.

Attached is an aerial photo I took in May 2015. Look at the 1950 picture and note the large recreation ground in the bottom LH quartile of the picture (bounded at the bottom by a railway line and to the left, by a road). Now look at my picture which shows the same recreation ground in the centre of the picture. Note how local trees have become more established, especially on the north escarpment of the South Downs. And notice the abundance of new buildings which have spread out onto the fields which used to be there.
