The Kent & East Sussex Railway was one of the light
railways operated by Colonel H.F. Stephens, the railway engineer.
It was originally opened, in 1900, as the Rother Valley Railway, with
its first stretch of line running from Robertsbridge to Tenterden, the
station later being renamed Rolvenden. The line extended nearer to the
centre of Tenterden to the Town station in 1903, and the railway's name
was changed to the Kent and East Sussex Railway in 1904 in anticipation
of extensions to Rye, Cranbrook and Maidstone via Headcorn. The line
extended to Headcorn in 1905, but no further extensions were ever built. |
