Footpath 146 south from Barnham
Towards Flansham and Felpham. It looks like a cycle path, and has many wheel tracks, but officially only a footpath.

Belt of trees near Hams, 2012
Now surrounded by a solar farm, the trees run along an old natural looking watercourse that has been superseded by the later rectilinear drainage system.
Footpath 200_1 crosses the railway
The path follows the long abandoned Portsmouth and Arundel Canal. The railway is the branch to Bognor Regis. The canal was on a slight embankment over this low-lying stretch, as may be seen across the railway. This barge part of the canal became completely disused in the 1850s. The railway, then single track, was opened in 1864. It is not clear from the 1874 OS survey if the railway actually bridged the canal - the towpath was generally at 21 ft OD, something there had a benchmark at 22.9 ft. The railway may have been obliged to bridge, as the canal company was not wound up until 1896. In any event, the railway was doubled in 1911, and clearly now cuts through the canal embankment.

Footpath 200_1 ascends old canal embankment
The path follows the course of the Portsmouth and Arundel Canal, disused since the 1850s. It was on a low embankment over this low-lying terrain, but here it has been razed. A farm track along the course leaves it to the left.
Trailer with big pipes
Not far from the local sewage works, but possibly to do with land drainage. Aerial photographs show that they were still there three years later.
Farm track along course of old canal
The Portsmouth and Arundel Canal was last used in the 1850s.
