View from Charles Copse over Crow The house in the centre of the picture is the photographer's boyhood home, in Barrack Lane.  The bushes in the left centre are where the railway line from Brockenhurst to Ringwood passed.  Behind the trees in the centre is the site of No. 14 Crossing, the keeper's cottage now a pleasant bungalow.

Old railway bridge at Bagnum The abutments of the old railway underbridge at Bagnum still exist but the steel deck was removed when the track was dismantled in the 1960's.  Charles Lane passes through on its way to Charles Farm at the top of the hill and onwards towards Burley.

Milestone above Burley Street One of a number erected in 1802 by Thomas Eyre marking the Peace of Amiens. Thankfully the stones outlasted the peace. This one is on a high bank in a grass triangle on the edge of heathland.
