Main arterial road through the new suburbs of eastern Burgess Hill that grew up in the 1980s and 90s. A public footpath crosses the road straight ahead a reminder of the rural origins of this area which once belonged to the parish of Ditchling.

Dist:0.2km<br/>Part of a new development still being completed on land formerly part of nearby Folders Farm. The basketball/football area is still pristine as it is still fenced off.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Although this was the only public crossing in the neighbourhood in former times, it seems unlikely it merited a crossing keeper, although the cottage appears to be, or have been, on railway land.

Dist:0.3km<br/>The rail link between the London-Brighton line at Keymer Junction and Lewes was opened in 1847. This view from Kings Way road bridge also takes in another older crossing just ahead which still has its original crossing keeper's house amongst the modern day suburbia of Burgess Hill.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Part of the new development called Folders Keep which is currently in the process of being built with some houses already occupied and others nearing completion. Built on land formerly part of Folders Farm the trees on the left are former field boundaries that now demarcate one housing estate from another as the eastward expansion of Burgess Hill reaches the railway line. According to the tithe map this was once a field called North Field which was already severely truncated by the railway before it became lost under new housing.
