The tunnel is the only one on the former Great Eastern Railway's Woodford and Ilford Branch. It was built in 1903 and extends for about 259 yards or about 237 metres. Since 1948 the railway has been operated as part of London Underground's Central Line. This is the view from the Dacre Gardens footbridge.
