A few questions.

Is this Falmer?
Is it not South of the A27?
Is it not nearer Moulscomb?

It is nearer Moulsecoomb ... There was quite a discussion about Woolards Field at one stage with the principle problem being the conditions put on it by the Woolard donors who had insisted at the time of gifting that the field be given over to some sort of community activity if my memory serves me right.

There was a sports field that bordered the railway embankment and if you looked south you could see the old Adventure playground on the hill.

Is this sports field Wollards?

If I follow your directions correctly, and remember that I am a mere female and as such able to get lost entirely by my own efforts thank you, I think it is.

Then any gift conditions have been forgotten.

I do not know what the land is currently used for but I sense a that if it is handed over to this cause the university will end up in charge.

It should remain for use by schools.

Besides which, a building full of precious artefacts in Moulscomb!
Please, are they bulding a police station next to it?

In that case it depends upon the upset it causes.
At least it keeps them off the roads.
If it is bad for local residents then you may as well build on it.
