Looking south from Easthouses along the route of the tramway on 30 October 1971. The pit had closed in 1969 and lifting of the tramway was completed during 1970. The bridge nearest the camera carries the B6482, with Mayfield Road crossing the earlier road bridge beyond. In the distance, the old footbridge that linked Broadhurst Road with the public park on the west side of the line is just visible. (See 71401).
