SEE SUB PAGE

The Steyning line was opened in two sections, the first section opening on the 1st July 1861 between Shoreham and Partridge Green. The second section was opened on the 16th October 1861, between Partridge Green and Itchingfield Junction. In order to connect the Steyning line with the Mid-Sussex and Cranleigh lines, two spurs were built, to form a triangular junction at Itchingfield. one line would  join the Mid-Sussex line, and the other near Christ’s Hospital at Stammer Junction (also know as Itchingfield South Fork), which allowed through running from Shoreham and the Mid-Sussex direct to Guildford without reversing at Horsham. The Stammer Junction spur was closed on the 1st August 1867.
