Pumping station at River Rother, near Newenden
Kent and East Sussex Railway A steam train crosses the Rother Levels between Hexden Channel and the River Rother travelling from Wittersham Road to Northiam. Built as a light railway in 1896 the line from Robertsbridge to Headcorn maintained its independence up to 1948. However, it lost its passenger service from 1954 and was officially closed in 1961. A preservation society was formed and after 13 years battle finally reopened the line, albeit from Tenterden to Rolvenden only. The KESR's success has meant gradual extensions, Wittersham Road was reached in 1977, Northiam in 1990 and Bodiam in 2000.
Footpath to Castle Toll Linking the site to the bridleway on the north bank of the River Rother it is the only footpath in or out. The trees on the right hide an old pond.
