Hamstreet High Street in snow. Now part of the westbound B2067, this was formerly both the B2070 (pre mid 1970s) and the A2070 (pre 1994). Note the B2067 TOTSOs left at the junction ahead, with the eastbound B2067 using the one-way street on the right.

It is hard to believe that this Victorian Street (Beaver Rd) used to be the main road to Romney Marsh and Hastings. It is now traffic-calmed with a colloapsible barrier, regularly rammed by cars that think they are buses!

Just ahead in this picture is where the old Ashford Road (B2070) meets the A259.
