An old route from Orpington to Farnborough. The wall and line of trees on the left marks the front boundary of a row of large houses built in the 1870s - Sunnyside, Fernbank, The Alchornes, Northolme and Sherlies, of which Sunnyside was notable as the home of George Allen, publisher to John Ruskin. The area was subsequently redeveloped in stages from the 1960s onwards, with Sherlies (the largest plot) being demolished first.
