Surrey Assembly Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses This substantial complex situated off the east side of Byers Lane was formerly Court Lees approved school.  The Jehovah's campaign of knocking on doors has clearly paid off - the car park was very well filled when this photograph was taken on a Sunday morning.

Whitewood Lane, Surrey Although Whitewood Lane is not a classified road, it carries a remarkably heavy flow of traffic, and it is unusual to see it without a car in view, even on a Sunday morning.  The road forms a useful short cut from Godstone and Blindley Heath to the Horley-Gatwick-Crawley conurbation.

Lane past Tanglewood Stables, Surrey Go for a ramble or cycle ride in this part of Surrey and you will very likely see more horses than cows, sheep or even motor cars.  And most of the animals will be in first-class condition as befits this important horse-breeding and rearing area.
