Once upon a time a footpath led to a level crossing of the railway track. In the late 1960s a massive excavation (and works to deal with the resulting breach of an underground stream) produced this cutting allowing a road under the line, and a few years later for the road to also pass under the new A45 (now A14) road. This is an unusual viewpoint from the top of the bank.
