Dist:0.4km<br/>A serious fire occurred sometime between 1908 and 1910. Horsebridge Mill was then rebuilt as a large roller mill. It continued working until 1969.

Dist:0.5km<br/>The station was built in "Tudor Style" in 1880 on the line that ran between Polegate and Eridge via Heathfield. There were once several lines and sidings and to the left of the picture there was a branch line that ran to the nearby Lunatic Asylum. The line closed in 1965 but the station building is vitually unchanged and is now a private residence

Dist:0.5km<br/>The western end of New Road has been abandoned for a real new road a few hundred metres to the north (not shown on map at this time).

Dist:0.6km<br/>New Road itself has been closed for sometime and is now accessible through an access road slightly to the north of the original position. The rather unsightly scene is landscaping which will look much better one presumes, by the end of the summer.

Dist:0.6km<br/>The bridge in the foreground used to span the railway but this was a victim of the Beeching cuts of the 1960s; it now crosses a footpath known as the Cuckoo Line.
