How do I export photos from Lightroom CC eco-system while maintaining the folder/album structure in Lightroom.

You will have to create that structure manually on your hard drive, and then export the images into the appropriate folder(s) manually. There is no way to select all images and then let Lightroom create a folder hierarchy on export.

Thank you for that advice. I have recreated the Lightroom folder/album structure onto my hard drive & successfully exported the Lightroom photos into those. A test of copying a small selection of photos back into a test album in Lightroom from the hard drive successfully retained the metadata also. Great.
