This bridge carried the direct south coast line on the north side of a triangular junction with the Eastbourne branch. This route is now abandoned and all traffic proceeding beyond Eastbourne has to reverse there. The bridge is not plated by any authority, yet has suffered a little damage from overheight vehicles. The road is a dead-end serving a few premises including a sewage works.
