Old bridge, Lorenden Park, Painters Forstal
Once it spanned a stream, now dried up. It ran from Whitehill, northwards along Water Lane. When the M2 motorway was built in 1965, Water Lane was rebuilt south of the A2 and the stream diverted into a culvert under the road. This led to its complete disappearance. Viewed from Eastling Road, Whitehill.

Teasels in Lorenden Park, Painters Forstal
By the stream bed, now dried up. It ran from Whitehill, northwards along Water Lane. When the M2 motorway was built in 1965, Water Lane was rebuilt south of the A2 and the stream completely diverted into a culvert under the road. This led to its complete disappearance. The old bridge that spanned the stream can be seen to the right with Eastling Road in the background.
