Dist:0.2km<br/>The railway from Loughton to Ongar was built by the Eastern Counties Railway and opened through here in 1865. Through the years it has subsequently had a multiplicity of owners, the Great Eastern Railway, the London and North Eastern Railway, British Railways, and the London Transport Executive and London Underground. After many years of falling incomes the line was finally closed by London Underground in 1994. At the moment it remains mothballed, with the porcelain insulators to the right of the track the only sign that it was once electrified. One of the aims of The Epping Ongar Railway http://www.eorailway.co.uk/ is to reinstate the line back to the London Underground Central Line station at Epping. This is the view looking towards Ongar, taken from the bridge carrying the footpath between Epping and Coopersale, which pre-dated the railway, over the line. For a view in the opposite direction please see [[2136703]].

Dist:0.4km<br/>The path passes by these ancient hornbeam pollards in Geron Bushes. Essex Wildlife now manages the woodland and is beginning to pollard the trees once more - which should help them to survive for many more years.
