#154623, nearby

Restriction on the ncn51 diversion

New sheet piling now encloses quite a big area, though whether it's the location of the culvert for ncn51 to cross the brook is still not clear.

#154492, nearby

Renewed sheet piling to facilitate culvert for ncn51 to cross the brook near the eastern end of the new jetty

river bank was being built up and rolled flat - 7 October

#152621, nearby

Neat cut in the path isn't new - it was already visible in July, maybe earlier - but it's a bit more noticeable now. I don't think it's the location of the old cattlegrid - that was at the end of the boardwalk.

#152148, nearby

Something has been built, and covered in plastic sheet, behind the row of piles - but it's not one of the 8 culvert sections which are still waiting in the compound.

Taller piles, and the hole they contain is beginning to look big enough for a culvert on the new brook alignment. Meanwhile, detailed (cosmetic?) brickwork at the end of the jetty.

#151625, nearby

15/09/20 - a bit more progress on ground level for eastern landfall of jetty?

#151293, nearby

#151292, nearby

Piles sunk into riverbed, and excavation behind them being pumped out.

#151291, nearby

Fresh excavation of river bank where ncn51 jetty will rejoin - and lots of fresh material ready to be put somewhere.

#151290, nearby

Is the brook between rail and Trail now partly filled in? Look through&beyond the railings.

Old boardwalk had many small support uprights - unlike new jetty

#150512, nearby

Beginning of the end for the old boardwalk on NCN51

Useful new sign at the bottom, if I'm not mistaken.

#84234, nearby

The route signs on this lamppost are very odd: why is it just alongside an arbitrary point in the road here and not at a junction? The sign at the top points to: Route 51 → King's Hedges 1¼ St Ives 13 (via the busway) the larg ... [more]

I have no idea why these are here. This isn't on Route 51.

#66822, nearby

I have no idea why these signs have been put here. This isn't on Route 51. There is another set a few yards away, also incorrect.
