View from Binney Road
This is the view from Binney Road which leads from Allhallows to Binney Farm and Allhallows Marshes. There are a number of horse paddocks in this immediate area. On either side of the corrugated iron shelter for horses can be seen the embankment of the former branch railway line from Stoke Junction to Allhallows-on-Sea station. The latter was roughly where the buildings in the distance can be seen. The railway was a very short-lived affair. It was opened on 16th May 1932 by the Southern Railway in an effort to develop a seaside resort at Allhallows on Sea. A station hotel was built but the rather bleak location could never compete with other resorts and although the branch was doubled in 1935, it always struggled. After the Second World War there was a steady decline in passengers and the line was singled again in 1957. It finally closed on 4th December 1961. See http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/a/allhallows_on_sea/ for a fuller history of the branch.

A dead horse and a dead railway
This is the view from Binney Road which leads from Allhallows to Binney Farm and Allhallows Marshes. There are a number of horse paddocks in this immediate area. One of the horses was buried here. The inscription says "CHILLY BRIDGE C.B. 1.11.73 - 24.10.98" and the lying horse in stone is next to it. The embankment behind is the remains of the former branch railway line from Stoke Junction to Allhallows-on-Sea station. The railway was a very short-lived affair. It was opened on 16th May 1932 by the Southern Railway in an effort to develop a seaside resort at Allhallows on Sea. A station hotel was built but the rather bleak location could never compete with other resorts and although the branch was doubled in 1935, it always struggled.
