The line to Canterbury West seen from Whitehall Road crossing
The South Eastern Railway began its services from Ashford to what is now Canterbury West on 6th February 1846 and the line was extended to Ramsgate two months later. The green bridge ahead carries the line between Faversham and Canterbury East which was opened on 9th July 1860 by the London, Chatham & Dover Railway.
This view is from the Stour Valley Walk which here follows Whitehall Road and crosses the line via pedestrian gate's although vehicles are able to open the full gates. This looks in the direction of Canterbury West.

Whitehall Lane: former level crossing
This is the site of the former level crossing at Harbledown Junction, across Whitehall Lane, taken by the Elham Valley Light Railway. The crossing was immediately after leaving the main line. In order to reduce inconvenience, the railway company was required to provide a tunnel with low headroom under the railway immediately to the south, which still can be identified by passing through a nearby stile.

Whitehall Road alongside the railway line
Whitehall Road is followed here by the Stour Valley Walk. The railway line on the right is between Chartham and Canterbury West which here follows Whitehall Road until a level crossing is reached just ahead.
The South Eastern Railway began its services from Ashford to what is now Canterbury West on 6th February 1846 and the line was extended to Ramsgate two months later. Until 1947 the Elham Valley Line came in on the left to meet the Canterbury West line. The Elham Valley Line opened in 1887 and closed to passengers in 1940, closing completely in 1947. All the information about the Elham Valley Railway is given here http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/e/elham/index.shtml
