The tour starts on the approach to Culver Junction, looking north east, with a much photographed bridge. Despite the solid construction it only carries a private farm track. |
Passing through the bridge and looking back south west the site of the old Culver Junction signal box is on the left adjacent to the bridge. The remains of a signal box outbuilding can just be seen, covered in weeds, in front of the bridge. This whole area is private property (photographed with permission). |
This view, taken from the bridge, looks north east. Caravans for farm staff now stand where the single line to Sheffield Park would have branched left. |
Standing at ground level at Culver Junction, the line to Sheffield Park curves away north west, following the curved line of trees in the distance. A separate collection follows the line to Sheffield Park and appropriate links are below. This is private land and a large bull is sometimes loose in the area. Please do not visit unannounced and without permission. |
Moving the camera slightly to the right, the line to Barcombe Mills Station, Isfield Station and Uckfield ran straight ahead along the track between the trees (to the north east). |
A short distance along the main line to Barcombe Mills this view looks back south towards Culver Junction. Despite a long dry spell it can be seen that the trackbed remained a tad soggy. |
Looking towards Barcombe Mills at a point about half way from Culver Junction. At one time the station buildings could be seen from the junction, but those were the days when the trackside was kept clear. |
This view looks back south west from the same point, towards Culver Junction. |
Walking towards Barcombe Mills a large amount of chalk has been dumped on the embankment, but the source is not clear. This view looks north east. |
A view from the same point, looking back south west towards Culver Junction. |
Barcombe Mills Station is private property, and a gate has been placed across the embankment at the boundary. In turn a hedge now blocks the gate. This view looks towards the boundary. |
Turning round, this shot looks back south west from the same point. |
