Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Petersfield level crossing Looking north from Petersfield station, across the level crossing and past the signal box towards a bridge carrying Tilmore Road. To the right there used to be the platform for the line towards Midhurst, that veered right just beyond the trees. The line closed in the 1960s. Although the crossing now has barrier gates, it is still operated from the signal box, due to the volume of traffic on the road. I remember being here in the early 1970s, when the gates were full gates, and the Milk Race (cycling Tour of Britain) was coming through. About six cyclists were a few hundred metres ahead; they were let across the crossing then the gates were closed before the remaining cyclists got there. Oops!
