HANGLETON ROAD

Here, just for comparison, is the altered scene in 1957, 22 years later, by which time Hangleton Road was almost entirely built up. Although the new road was constructed in 1940, it was not lit until after the end of the War, for obvious reasons. The railway line crossed the old road at the spot where the hoarding stands in the field and if you look closely to the left of the tree you can see part of the old chalk embankment on which the railway was carried across the valley. This tree may well be the sapling seen in the earlier photograph, to the left of the tree.
