en 1946 January and February G. A. Sekon The L.B.S.C.R. West Coast Section Railway Magazine 15 After much strenuous controversy the Shoreham and Chichester Railway agreed to pay the Duke of Norfolk a large sum for the presumed loss of bridge tolls that would result from the construction of the railway, and also purchased the old wooden bridge about a mile up the river, which served the alternative road through Old Shoreham. It may be remarked here that the Shoreham-Horsham branch crosses the highway on the level at the Old Shoreham end of the wooden bridge, where a block signal box is provided.
