Barcombe .... the old railway bridge
Image: © Colin Vosper Taken: 27 Jan 2010
The old railway track used to pass under the road bridge and as shown in this photo this route is now blocked up, probably for safety reasons. No doubt once the scene of steam trains belching smoke to the amazement and delight of onlookers, but now the railway track is gone along with the tunnel. The different coloured brickworks indicates where the trains used to run under the bridge as they arrived or departed from Barcombe station.
