Three Bridges See also Three Bridges (disambiguation).
Three Bridges is a neighbourhood within the town of Crawley, located near London Gatwick Airport in the county of West Sussex in England. History Three Bridges was a tiny hamlet, which first began to grow with the coming of the railways in the mid 19th century. Despite many beliefs to the contrary, the village was not named after rail bridges, but rather for three much older crossings over the streams in the area (River Mole tributaries). The village was changed radically with the coming of the New town development in the Crawley area in the late 1940s. Three Bridges was one of the first group of neighbourhoods to be built. There are currently 13 neighbourhoods. Three Bridges Railway Station Three Bridges is home to a major rail station at the intersection of the London to Brighton line and the London to Southampton and Portsmouth Line (via Horsham). Local Sports Three Bridges Football Club play in Division 1 of the Sussex County League. Three Bridges Cricket Club play in the Sussex Cricket League. External Links
