Geocache Description:

This is a small Sidetracked Micro cache on the Gossops Green side of Ifield Railway station.

The cache doesn't contain a writing implement, so you will need to bring one with you. (The log book is in a sandwich bag to keep it protected from the elements as the first log book took a bit of a battering!)

Ifield railway station serves the neighbourhoods of Ifield and Gossops Green in the West Sussex town of Crawley. It is on the Arun Valley Line, and train services are provided by Southern. The station was opened on 1 June 1907 as Lyons Crossing Halt, although it became known as Ifield Halt later that year. It was then closed for just over three years between 1st January 1917 and 2nd May 1920, before being reopened the next day. It was one of a series of unstaffed intermediate halts set up by the London Brighton and South Coast Railway, to be worked by rail motor trains. It became known simply as Ifield station from 1930. It is still in operation, providing services to London Bridge and Horsham.
