Can anyone advise whether or not that one at Amberley just constitutes a very short block section? Two signals look to be very close to each other!

 

[heart-of-wessex]

I have seen these short sections before, assuming it is a normal short section, then the signalman cannot set the home signal to clear UNLESS the distance signal is horizontal (yellow). I think it's at least three signals must be clear in order for the distance signal to be off.

So when the distant is on, the first home signal can be clear and the next one can be at danger, because the driver would have seen the caution aspect from the distant, he/she can expect one of the aspects to be at danger
