Orleans Road here runs along the floor of a dip that marks the line of the River Effra, one of London's "lost" (largely-culverted) rivers, which rises here and flows to the Thames at Vauxhall. From the manhole cover close to the camera comes a constant sound of running water, presumably from the culverted stream below.
