Marylands, New England Road, HAYWARDS HEATH, RH16 3JZ

The second and smaller of the two parish churches of St Wilfrid's. An iron building was originally erected here in 1882 and replaced by the current one in 1897. The building on the left is a small church hall whilst the cul-de-sac built in the 1980s was built in the grounds of the vicarage.

The road runs in a circular fashion from New England Road and back again further east to the point where it changes to America Lane. This section looks down towards the junction with Little Bentswood and Bentswood Crescent. The Bentswood estate was begun by the local council in the mid 1920s and largely completed by the mid 1930s with a couple editions after the war. Named after the wood it was built on.

Erected in the 1930s as a working class estate the name deriving from the Bent family who owned land in the area during the 19th century. Bentswood Road runs from the left then up the hill, the road leading out to the right is Little Bentswood.

Looking eastwards along the road that was laid out around the 1880s along with many of the houses visible on the left. The road becomes America Lane at the eastern junction with Bentswood Road a point which once marked the parish boundary between Cuckfield and Lindfield. The white van is pulling out of Western Road.

This side of the roundabout is America Lane, heading straight ahead is New England, whilst Bentswood Road goes off to the right. The junction marks the former parish boundary between Cuckfield and Lindfield with New England Road developed from the latter years of the Victorian era and reaching this point by 1910. Bentswood Road was developed as a large council estate during the 1930s whilst America Lane was home to an early 19th century Quaker self help settlement known initially as The Colony and later as America which survived until 1944 when all the cottages were demolished.

This is the name of the road straight ahead. Bentswood Road sweeps round from near right to left.

The eastern part of the road was built in the 1930s as part of the Bentswood Estate, with the northern part, see Image added after the Second World War. Viewed from the junction with Bentswood Road and Bentswood Crescent.

Small private lane off New England Road the houses being developed during the interwar period.

Small cul de sac off Western Road developed in the late 19th century initially as an access road to a house called Langridge which still stands to south amongst the trees. On the left are two sets of semi-detached cottages built in the first decade of the 20th century with Canadian Cottages on the immediate left and Quebec Cottages beyond. Between the wars, Adastra and Byways, another semi-detached pair were added beyond the hedge to the right. The garage straight ahead belongs to St Giles which was added in the 1960s, the last residence to built here.

Built in the 1930s on the site of Bent's Wood and running from Bentswood Road to Barn Cottage Lane.
