The concrete bridge carries a public footpath, and also the Morecambe Bay Cycleway (though a sign instructs cyclists to dismount and walk their bikes over the narrow bridge). The channel of the Leven used to run west (left) of this view, and where the channel is now, used to be saltmarsh. It was re-engineered in the 1980s when the Greenodd bypass was built using the alignment of a former railway line that used to cross the marsh on an embankment just beyond the present bridge.
