Driving sheep to the Hyde, Handcross
The flock of sheep (continued from picture #1216) has now reached the Furnace Pond at Slaugham. In the foreground is Bill Scott, farm manager at the Hyde, using his crook as a walking stick, and surrounded by his Border Collies awaiting orders.
The Large Version shows them at the top of Coos Lane turning left into the Horsham Road, Handcross.

I think 1975 may be nearer the date. I cannot be more specific as I do not possess my pocket books of those days. You had to hand them in on completion before being issued with a replacement.
