THE BEGINNING OF CARDEN AVENUE

These are photographs of Woodhatch, the first house built in Carden Avenue in 1922. It is on the south side, No. 34, and was built for, and still occupied by Mr. E. A. Midgley. Until then it was just a track leading down from Ditchling Road, over the site of the present Graham Avenue, and out into the London Road. Apart from a few neighbouring houses, there was little development here until after incorporation with Brighton in 1928. In this view on the skyline can be seen, Lower Varndean Cottages, now part of Greenfield Crescent.
