Viewed looking from the end of Beech Road back towards Dunstable Road, the blue railings are on a flight of steps leading up to an entrance to Luton Town's football ground. The Ordnance Survey mapping from 1888 shows this area to be open agricultural land around Bury Farm without a street in sight!
