Looking out across Horsham. The Rusper Road roundabout is just to the right of the centre of the picture
 
 Looking slightly Eastwards from the previous picture. The Moorhead roundabout is towards the left at the picture at the end of the road. The Holbrook Club playing fields can be seen towards the right of the picture and the new St Marks Spire on the far right.

Don't look down!
 

 
SET TWO - Taken from the brow of the first big hill as head towards Rusper from Horsham
 
Looking north, Gatwick is once again visible on the right of the horizon.
 
Looking East(ish), Gatwick is on the far left, then Crawley's industrial area, followed by the town centre (ICC, the hospital and the college are all clearly visible). The next easily identified areas are the Kilnwood Vale development (see http://aerialbritain.blogspot.com/2015/06/six-pictures-kilnwood-vale-development.html for closer aerial images of this estate) then Faygate. On the far right of the image is the outskirts of Horsham
