The Cut connects to the River Thames and retains public navigation rights, though it is impractical for boats to pass through the sections in Miadenhead today as they are silted up and overgrown. The old channel leaves the Thames just above Cliveden and eventually rejoins it just below Bray Lock by the Marina. In the centre of Maidenhead a green walk has been created alongside The Cut. This is the view from the Green Lane bridge looking back towards Stafferton Way.
