Salmon's Brook in Edmonton (5)
This is a view looking upstream from the railway culvert. The whole area on either side of the brook here has been landscaped to provide temporary water storage areas in a flood event.

View of the railway from Picketts Lock Lane
The railway line from Stratford to Broxbourne via Waltham Cross was opened by the Northern & Eastern Railway on 15th September 1840. The next station in this (the up) direction is Angel Road although not many trains stop there. Data now shows it as the least used station in London - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_Road_railway_station

Montagu Road, Edmonton
Featuring the Enfield Food Centre on the corner of Town Road. This is along the final, rather uninspiring lower section of the Pymme's Brook Trail, an urban footpath which follows the brook from near Cockfosters down to Picketts Lock on the River Lee.

Salmons Brook
Salmons Brook is a small tributary of the River Lea which has a history of flooding. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmons_Brook The area here has paths and a few trees and functions as a bit of a park for most of the time, but it is enclosed by earth banks and is designed to contain flood water should the need arise.

North-South Routes
The railway line from London Liverpool Street to Cambridge, together with the A1055 Meridian Way, still often called by its name when planned, the North-South Route, or simply "the new road". There is housing (mainly flats) to the west, and industry to the east. The skyscrapers of the City of London are visible on the horizon.
