Softtech Global, London Road, Albourne Much change of usage is in evidence here. The road in the foreground up to 1990 was the A23(T) which has now been superseded by the dual carriageway which runs to the west. The building in the background was originally an inn. Built in 1938 by A.B.Peckham to cater for the growing motoring trade. Taken from the junction with the B2116 looking west.
