The route of the old railway line, immediately to the south of the river, now forms a cycle path to Luton.

The ‘Gate House' was the level crossing keeper's house until the railway was closed in 1967 as part of the Beeching rationalisation.

This stretch of the River Lea is popular with anglers, who catch barbel, gudgeon, chub, perch, roach, dace and sometimes grayling.
