Back on the Roman camp and looking south-east we see the race course grandstand on the horizon towards the left. Just to the right and immediately below (with the chimney) is the old Brighton workhouse, now the General Hospital. Further to the right the newish tower block of the Royal Sussex County Hospital shows over the houses partly hiding it. The green, treed strip running slightly downwards from left to right is Woodvale cemetery. Most of the houses are late Victorian or Edwardian terraces built when Brighton was expanding fast.
I delight in walking Fern, my English Springer Spaniel, through the woods and fields around Stanmer and over the South Downs.
