SHEEP SCENES ON THE SOUTH DOWNS

The photograph above shows clearly the fork of the Saddlescombe and Devils Dyke Road, the chief differences from the present day being the complete absence of traffic. The signposts stand in almost the same position today and the roadways about a foot or two wider. The year of this photograph was 1903 and the grassy surface was as yet unsullied by the incursions of the cars which have worn away the grass to a chalky mess.
