The bridge carries the Central Line over Chigwell Lane, adjacent to Debden Station. The railway opened in 1865 when the station, in what must then have been a very rural area, was called Chigwell Lane (initially for a few months it was Chigwell Road). It became part of the London Underground network in 1949 when it was renamed Debden. This change coincided with the development of London County Council's Debden Estate.
