The Beam River is seen here looking upriver from New Road. The structure in the distance is for flood control. This is the southern entrance to Beam Valley Country Park. See http://www.thameschase.org.uk/visitor-centres/dagenham-and-romford/beam-valley-country-park and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_Valley_Country_Park for more information on the park. Above the confluence with the Ravensbourne, near Harrow Lodge Park, the Beam River is known as the River Rom. The Beam flows into the Thames at Dagenham - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Rom for more information on the Beam River.
