The first set are taken at the eastern end of Kilnwood Lane at the point where it is no longer possible to continue by car.

 

Looking south east across Kilnwood Vale, Bewbush, Broadfield and Buchan Park. Holy Trinity is towards the top left and Cottesmore golf course towards the top right.

 

Looking south towards Holmbush, which is a little right and above centre at the top of the open field. Kilnwood Vale is to the left and the railway track runs diagonally across the centre of the photo.

 

Looking west along Kilnwood Lane. Faygate is visible towards the top left.

 

Looking north west towards Lambs Green. The diagonal path across to the middle of the two green fields is the footpath to Lambs Green from Ifield West and Croudace, next to the Lamb, is the white area above the fields.
