More about this scene

According to Eric Parker, scores of visitors to Leith Hill would alight at Holmwood railway station and be taken by horse-drawn brake to the foot of the hill - the rest of the trip they would have to make on foot! South Holmwood's fire station was once just to the left of this picture, and the post office (extreme left), doubled up as Crofts', bakers and confectioners.
