It was a lovely house with a fantastic orchard at the rear of the garden which every year produced apples, damsons, pears and plenty of blackberry's and in turn my granddad made superb wines from, quite strong as well. text/html 2011-07-05T11:12:28GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/46818 Martin Miles 51.308867 -0.123822 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2491152 Snow over Bradmore pond during a round trip. text/html 2011-07-05T11:05:34GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/46818 Martin Miles 51.291739 -0.143739 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2491140 Taken from a glider based at Kenley text/html 2011-07-04T15:56:09GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/46818 Martin Miles 51.298741 -0.131694 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2489964 I worked very hard that day to get this picture as I rode from Old Coulsdon and did a full lap of Coulsdon snapping anything of interest along the way. The next day I was very ill but it was worth it.

It once pumped water half a mile up hill and in and up to the water tower. They used to bore big holes down into the local chalk and water would find its way out of the fissures within the chalk to form a well so that could be used. This is where the water came from back in 1882 and the last date of service for this well house was in 1987. The second tower is the top of St Andrews Church with is flag flying proudly. I've seen this view so many times whilst driving down the hill thinking I wish I had my camera, well on this day I did but it was my rubbish camera that I carry everywhere. Teach me not to get my grand camera fixed after dropping it on a solid concrete floor. Sorry for the poor quality photo but I think it's a great view either way and makes you feel home as you drop down in to Coulsdon. text/html 2010-05-04T17:00:52GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/46818 Martin Miles 51.313758 -0.148590 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1840111 The last of four pictures and together they make a complete panoramic of Coulsdon and The Downs. text/html 2010-05-04T16:57:25GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/46818 Martin Miles 51.313758 -0.148590 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1840103 The view from the top of Cane Hill water tower over looking The Downs. text/html 2010-05-04T16:54:44GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/46818 Martin Miles 51.313758 -0.148590 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1840097 A Panoramic taken from the top of Cane Hill water tower. text/html 2010-05-04T16:50:41GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/46818 Martin Miles 51.313758 -0.148590 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1840092 A panoramic taken from the top of the Cane Hill water tower. text/html 2010-05-04T11:23:17GMT http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/46818 Martin Miles 51.318198 -0.156448 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1839715 This was taken shortly after closure. It's Builder Centre along Chipstead Valley Road but before Build Center took over it was once called M A Rays and before this Harry Bacons. I'm still working on a date the place first opened but I do know it closed on 2nd Feb 2008 at 4pm. The site is now waiting development and this, as ever, will be houses.
