Update October 2021: I saw one of these postcards which has been written on the back, it's dated August 1913, so this picture would have been taken previous to that. It's certainly over 100 years old.
Another version of the Postcard.

'Fairseat Road' postcard. This is now the junction of Fairseat Lane with A227.
I do love a vintage postcard of the area, and I've not seen this before. This is the junction of Fairseat Lane with the A227, which is a busy road and you certainly wouldn't want to sit there any more! The Ebay listing dated it to circa 1926. Why were the roads so white looking back then? I think it must pre-date Tarmac, so would still be dirt roads, or perhaps very chalky dirt roads?
