Aerial view of Coombe Wood and Thundersley Glen The London Road (A13) runs left to right across the image. Coombe Wood lies just above this at the left and Thundersley Glen below it on the right. Hill Road runs from mid-centre bottom up towards the centre. Thundersley Park Road runs from left of centre-bottom up and curves round to join Hill Road. These two roads are unmade at the centre of the image (though they are mad at the bottom). Underhill Road runs parallel to the bottom at the right. Thundersley proper occupies much of the upper right.
