View southward, towards Horsted Keynes and Lewes: ex-LB&SCR (London) - Oxted - East Grinstead - Lewes - (Brighton) line. The station and line were closed finally on 17/3/58, but the line was acquired by the heritage Bluebell Railway and reopened Sheffield Park - Horsted Keynes 31/7/60, then, after demolishing the remains of West Hoathley station, on through here to Kingscote in 1994 - and eventually to East Grinstead in March 2013. (Cf. TQ3631 : West Hoathly Tunnel on the Bluebell Railway).
