Cottages on High Street, Brasted
This view looks from the cul-de-sac known as West End across the very busy A25 during a rare break in the traffic. The A25 must have been horrendous before the M25 was built. It is bad enough now.

Chapel and disused pub in Brasted
The chapel on the far side of the busy A25 dates from 1886. The Stanhope Arms on the right was for sale at the time of this photograph, although the chalked notice next to the door was asking for kitchen and bar staff. This is the view from Church Lane.
