With typically six trains an hour in each direction on weekdays this is a very busy level crossing with frequent closures to road traffic. [[675396]] is in the distance with an up South West Trains train in the station and a down service bound for Dorking departing and about to cross over the level crossing.

The grubby white post against the bridge parapet is a boundary marker. It shows the boundary between the former Boroughs of Malden and Coombe to the left and Merton and Morden to the right. During the reorganization of local government in the 1960s, the former became part of the London Borough of Kingston upon Thames, and the latter became part of the London Borough of Merton. The current boundary between these Boroughs still follows the original line through the marker. The sign on the post on the left shows that you are entering the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. The road changes its name from Motspur Park to West Barnes Lane either side of the boundary post. The bridge carries the road over Beverley Brook.

Beverley Brook flows out into the River Thames to the east of Barnes. This was taken looking downstream from the Motspur Park / West Barnes Lane road bridge. The boundary between the London Boroughs of Merton, to the right, and Kingston upon Thames, to the left, runs down the centre of the brook at this location.
