South Godstone

South Godstone is 3 miles south of Godstone village and developed when the Tonbridge railway line was built in the 19th century.

Railway Bridge

Crowhurst Lane End railway bridge has a narrow width hence the traffic lights. The Brickmakers Arms Pub is just past the bridge.

Little Chef restaurant, South Godstone, Surrey

On the west side of the A22. I suppose some people must actually eat in these establishments, otherwise they would not be there.

Ponies near Crowhurst Lane, Surrey

A sharp shower of rain had just begun as we reached these friendly ponies being groomed in a field not far south of Crowhurst Lane.

Meadow and woodland, near Crowhurst, Surrey

No metalled road enters this gridsquare, which is thus a haven of peaceful English countryside. The infant River Eden meanders just beyond the trees, and a large herd of Channel Islands cattle can also just be discerned.

The Crowhurst Yew

This ancient tree is estimated to be around 4,000 years old; maybe twice the age of the church in whose graveyard it now stands. The location of a church here may suggest an effort to put an obvious Christian stamp on a site that was already of religious or spiritual significance to a pre-Christian population, thus easing the transition of religion.

The small disperesed village of Crowhurst lies about two miles north of Lingfield and is centred in the west of this grid-square around the small mediaeval church of St. George, seen here from the village street.
