  Kent/Surrey/East Sussex meeting point The field is in Kent, with the line of trees on the right dividing it from Surrey and the line of trees running from the left to the centre of the photo (which fittingly follow a stream called Kent Water) dividing it from East Sussex. The three counties therefore meet at the corner of the field in the centre of the photo.

  Furnace Lane, looking into Surrey The lane is unnamed on maps, but a postcode search on local properties gives the name Furnace Lane, although the name Smithers Lane might also be valid. Compare 1530584. Surrey is very keen on its 40 mph speed restrictions on rural roads, which may explain why the speed limit changes here at the county border with Kent.

  Furnace Lane, looking into Kent The lane is unnamed on maps, but a postcode search on local properties gives the name Furnace Lane, although the name Smithers Lane might also be valid. Compare 1530590. This is the Surrey/Kent border. Kent would appear to have a different attitude to speed limits from Surrey, since there is no discernible difference between the quality of this narrow lane in the two counties - in fact just up the lane into Kent is a farmshop (see 194403), which would seem to make the Kent side a greater candidate for a speed restriction, instead of the de-restriction shown by these signs.

  Basing's Farm Shop, near Cowden, Kent. We are in the extreme south-western corner of Kent here: another three hundred yards further along the lane and you'll find yourself, not in Sussex, but in Surrey: the meeting point of the three Counties is only about a quarter of a mile from this shop. You can get lots of things here - if you fancy a tasty joint of goat (or kid), this is the place to come - there's a whole field of them behind the shop.

  Access to Woodlands Farm. A triangular junction off Furnace Lane (but see below), with Woodlands Farm off to the left. The footpath sign is for the Vanguard Way, a long distance path which runs from Croydon to Newhaven. In the background is the sign in 1140327. The lane is unnamed on maps, but a postcode search on local properties gives the name Furnace Lane, although the name Smithers Lane might also be valid.
