Broadhurst Wood, Handcross Road
Built in the late 19th century as the main dwelling for Forest Nurseries which operated here and the adjacent field,
Image, up to at least the Second World War. It is called by its current name by the 1957 OS map taking it from the wood that lies to the immediate west.

Waiting for the rubbish collection
The road here, particularly to the left, was in a bad state, so no rubbish lorry will come this way until the thaw really sets in.

Private road
This connects Handcross Road with High Street, and serves several well-spaced desirable properties. Not often used as a through route, as the northern end is unsurfaced, and the junction with High Street does not have good sighting.

Sheep Field
The name of the field according to Balcombe's 1839 tithe map which is triangular in shape and is bordered by Handcross Road to the north. Towards the end of the 19th century the field became part of Forest Nursery with a dwelling built at the western end, see
Image, and much of what is in view turned into an orchard. This remained so until the Second World War when the nurseries closed. The field appears to have been grubbed sometime in the 1970s.
