RIGHTON ROADThe road to Brightonthe main route, pre-eminently the roadis measured from the south side of West- minster Bridge to the Aquarium.It goes by Croydon, Redhill, Horley, Crawley, and Cuckfield, and is (or is supposed to be) 51 \ miles in length.Of this prime routethe classic wavthere are several longer or shorter variations, of which the way through Clapham, Mitcham, Sutton, and Reigate, to Povey Cross is the chief.The modern " record " route is the first of these two, so far as Hand Cross, where it branches off and, instead of going through Cuckfield, proceeds to Brighton by way of Hickstead and Bolney, avoiding Clayton Hill and rejoining the initial route at Pyecombe.The oldest road to Brighton is now but little used.It is not to be indicated in few words, but may be taken as the line of road from London Bridge, along the Kennington Road, to Brixton
