Scrubland, Station Road, Polegate
It may look like just scrubland, but it is in fact the line of the old railway from Polegate to Eridge.

The Junction, Polegate
The Junction pub is opposite the old railway station in Polegate. The station, however, closed in 1986, being replaced by a new station about 300 metres further west.
Polegate was once at the junction of four railway lines, from Lewes, Eridge, Eastbourne and Hastings. The line to Eridge and the direct line towards Hastings have been closed for many years, so Polegate is no longer a railway junction. Trains still run from here to Hastings, but they now go via Eastbourne.

Old Station House, Polegate
Old Station House, in the East Sussex town of Polegate, is a recent development of apartments with a convenience store on the ground floor. It occupies the site of former railway station. The station at this site closed in 1986, replaced by a new station around 300 metres to the west.
A photo of the old station building, which was demolished in 2017, is here:

Several houses in this recent development sport roof panels. This was not a good day for solar power though.

At the sign of the cuckoo
I only noticed on reviewing my photos that this is no ordinary lamp-post, but a sign for the Cuckoo Trail which starts here.
