An impressive footbridge has to cross a double line and a single line separated by a wide area of grass in between seen here. This is the line between Shenfield and Billericay which was opened to passenger services on 1st January 1889 and continued on to Southend Victoria on 1st October of the same year. It diverges from the main line of 1843 to Chelmsford and Colchester about a quarter of a mile back towards Shenfield. This view is of the northern single line on the left and the double line on the right looking in the direction of Billericay. On the north side of the footbridge the path passes alongside Arnold's Wood on its way to Lower Road and Mountnessing. The edge of Arnold's Wood can just be seen on the left.
