At the end of the road from Ludgrove School you turn left onto Easthampstead Road and go up to Star Lane level crossing. Network Rail has recently named this as one of the most dangerous crossings in the country so do take care.
The road on the other side of the crossing used to be called Star Lane, taking its name from The Star Inn at the Northern end. The inn closed in 1909 and was replaced by shops.
You turn right into Waterloo Road, the first road on your left being Rances Lane, named after the Rance Family who ran The Plough inn on London Road. Just beyond was once Waterloo Lodge, where John Walter II’s son Arthur Fraser was born in 1846.
The pictures show a map of Star Lane and Waterloo Road from 1875 and Waterloo Lodge in an 1887 map.
