Swaffham Bulbeck Lode from Cow Bridge
Swaffham Bulbeck Lode was once a navigable waterway and Commercial End a river port. The coming of the railway in the 1880s put a stop to that.

Swaffham Bulbeck Lode from Cow Bridge
The lode was navigated to Commercial End until about the 1900s, when the bridge here must have been more suitable than this 1927 replacement, which has a rather limited cross-section under it. N.R.D.C. stands for Newmarket Rural District Council.

Swaffham Bulbeck Lode, from Cow Bridge
Although the map marks a lock at the entrance to the lode from the River Cam, it can be seen at Image that the channel is now used only for drainage, not navigation, explaining the state of the channel at this end.

Cow Bridge and Swaffham Bulbeck Lode
The bridge was built by Newmarket Rural District Council in 1927. The next bridge over the Lode, in the distance, once carried the Cambridge to Mildenhall railway. Paths either side of the water lead to where the Lode meets the Cam, at Swaffham Lock.

Swaffham Bulbeck Lode
The lode drains into the River Cam and is viewed here from Image At this point the lode is in Swaffham Bulbeck Civil Parish but a short way down the boundary with Lode Civil Parish comes in from the left and the boundary then runs down the centre of the lode into the distance. This photo was taken from the same point as Ajay's Image but over five years later. About the only noticeable change is that the vegetation along the footpath on the left side of the lode has been comprehensively mown back, while five years earlier it appeared to be something of a jungle.
