This area of former floodplain by the River Roding was designated a linear park after construction of the M11. It provides a pleasant north-south leisure route alongside the rather sluggish Roding. The new tree planting will in time screen the motorway, which has a roar like a jumbo jet. Here we are looking north, with the river to our right and the motorway on the left. Redbridge roundabout is half a mile behind us.
