![Railway swing-bridge over Sheepwash Cut, closed: 1983. At this time, a swing-bridge enabled a railway line to cross the navigable Sheepwash Cut (also known as Sheepwash Channel), giving railway access to sidings and the former London & North-Western Railway station. The bridge was very seldom moved by this time. It was decommissioned when the land to the east of the railway line, north and south of the river channel, was developed for housing. A road bridge now crosses the channel a little to the east but as of 2025 the swing-bridge is still there, swung permanently out of the way of passing boats.
