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. :: Hamsey_Bridge_looking_south_170607_E.jpg

Viewers of this collection may also like to refer (if possible) to a book entitled Branch Lines to Horsted Keynes produced by Michael S Welch in about 1994.

Where possible I have attempted to take pictures in June 2007 which reproduce photos in the book taken around 1994, but owing to undergrowth and other changes this has not always been practicable.

This collection will take some time to view.
