The horseshoe-shaped Enfield Loop used to form the part of the New River aqueduct that passed through Enfield Town. However in around 1900 the Loop was bypassed with the laying of three cast iron pipes to carry the waters of the New River between Southbury Road and Bush Hill. The redundant watercourse has recently been restored as can be seen in this shot taken from Parsonage Gardens.
