Turning round, the delightful high arched bridge is now buried in spoil and all that can be seen is the parapet. The trees growing beyond the northern parapet unfortunately completely blocked any photography from this excellent high viewpoint.

A photographic tour of the Bluebell Railway - Former line from Hamsey and Culver Junction to Sheffield Park
Trains @ fotopic.net
The tour starts at Hamsey Church, south west of Culver Junction. This view looks south towards the village of South Malling. The old line from Lewes enters the picture on the middle left, and curves round following the line of trees on the right of the houses. Nearer the camera you can see the remains of an old bridge where the line crossed the River Ouse. The slope directly in front of the camera is a cutting which has been totally filled in (shades of the Imberhorne Lane Tip). Nearest the camera is assumed to be some kind of venting system for gases to escape from the fill in the cutting.Previous | NextThis view looks over the bridge to the south east. The road leads only to a pleasant old church. On the left the ground drops away in a sheer drop beyond the left hand parapet, but the trees prevent any view.
