Opened in 1855 as "Ordnance Factory" by the Eastern Counties Railway, later part of the Great Eastern Railway, on what is today the line from Liverpool Street to Broxbourne. The name was changed to "Enfield Lock" in 1886. The original platforms were immediately behind the camera position, north of the level crossing. They moved to the current position in 1890. View south towards Brimsdown and London.
