at a new station just west of the original LSWR station, which is now an industrial estate.

The line runs from the station through a cutting, passing under a road bridge and aqueduct carrying a mill <a href="/wiki/Leat" title="Leat">leat</a>, before crossing the River Kensey on a two-arch viaduct. The line is now on an embankment and crosses a bridge over a farm track before arriving at Hunt's Crossing, where it is planned to lay a <a href="/wiki/Passing_loop" title="Passing loop">passing loop</a>. After Hunt's Crossing the line crosses two farm crossings and then reaches Canna Park which was the temporary terminus before the extension to Newmills.
