Barnard Gate, Haywards Heath

Sheltered housing built around 1991 on the site of a former house. The road in the foreground is the old course of Balcombe Road which was moved westwards once the former mill ponds of Bridgers Mill were drained in the late 1950s in order to avoid a sharp ninety degree turn under the railway bridge. The remains of the road provide a parking place for 6 or 7 cars of commuters using Haywards Heath station which is a five minute walk to the south across the footpath that lies adjacent to Sainsbury's car park.
