== Summary == Was originally known as Hastings Hill, or [[London Road]], this being the main means of road transport in and out of the town. Renamed to Old [[London Road]] to distinguish it from the [[London Road]] in St Leonards. {{Renum|1934}}<ref>{{HSLO|12 May 1934|16}}</ref>The elm trees at the foot of the hill were originally planted by [[John Collier (1685-1760)]]. Part of Old [[London Road]] in Ore was at one time known as 'the [[High Street]]', being the main thoroughfare through the village. The road originally extended around [[The Ridge]] to Baldslow, being split in 1934 and renumbered as a result, hence some older images showing what we now know as The Ridge being captioned Old London Road. {{ShowImages}}{{Renum|1934}} {{In this road}} {{RN}} {{footer}} [[Category:Ore|Ore]] [[Category:Roads]] [[Category:Old Town]] [[Category:Ore]] [[Category:Roads needing more detail]]
