Bridleway level crossing and cottage
Although this was the only public crossing in the neighbourhood in former times, it seems unlikely it merited a crossing keeper, although the cottage appears to be, or have been, on railway land.

Towards Keymer Junction
The rail link between the London-Brighton line at Keymer Junction and Lewes was opened in 1847. This view from Kings Way road bridge also takes in another older crossing just ahead which still has its original crossing keeper's house amongst the modern day suburbia of Burgess Hill.

Building work at the Keymer Tile Works
The large machine in view on the building site on the former Keymer Tile Works is probably used for piling work. This site is a major location for new housing in Burgess Hill, which is taking place on the old Tile Works site and the adjacent Clay Pits that provided the material.

One O'clock Crossing
A local story goes that there was once a very devoted labourer on a local farm, who on his master's death was bequeathed a pocket watch. Although unable to tell the time, he cherished the watch and if asked the time he would study the watch and then announce "One O'clock Sir", no matter whether it was morning, noon, or night. Consequently the labourer was known to live at One O'clock Farm.

Kings Way
Main arterial road through the new suburbs of eastern Burgess Hill that grew up in the 1980s and 90s. A public footpath crosses the road straight ahead a reminder of the rural origins of this area which once belonged to the parish of Ditchling.
