View north, with the pub-sign of the 'Three Moles' visible on the right-hand side of the road. According to Dendy Marshall's 'History of the Southern Railway', the railway line originated as the Mid-Sussex and Midhurst Junction Railway, but (as so often happened) was acquired before opening by one of the large established companies - in this case, the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway. The line opened in 1866, and apparently lasted until the Beeching cuts of the 1960's.
