The bridge carries the London-Brighton line over this busy minor road as well as the platforms of Wivelsfield station. The latter is a bit of an anomaly, being over 2 miles from the village and outside the parish boundary. It was a late addition to the line opening in 1886 to replace a station on the branch to Lewes. For the first 10 years it was known as Keymer Junction before changing to its current name in 1896.
