Maidenbower playing fields
1 August 2019
Looking south east towards the motorway, which marks the change from housing to (Worth) Forest. The houses in the foreground are those in the Pallingham Drive and Moorland Road area.
Looking south west across Matthews Drive and Oriel's playing field towards Tilgate Forest. K2 is towards the top right and the little indent of houses into the trees, just below K2, is the Winchester Road/Gainsborough Road/Titmus Drive area of Tilgate.
Looking west. Oriel is in the foreground with Furnace Green and Tilgate beyond. The Town centre is towards the top right. Kilnwood vale is top centre
Looking north west towards Three Bridges and Manor Royal. The roundabout on the left is by Oriel and the Town centre is towards the top left. The diagonal line of trees across the centre mark the bridleway 'The Bower' which joins up with Worth Way and the copse at the top end marks the site of Blackwater Forge, part of the local 16th century iron industry.
Looking north across Maidenbower Junior and infant schools towards Pound Hill. The curved line of trees running horizontally just above centre mark Worth Way.
Looking north east, the motorway junction, Coaching Halt etc. are right of centre. Just above centre, in the middle of the trees, is the spire at St. Nicholas in Worth.
Looking eastwards towards the motorway junction.
