Travel Guide

Site of former Inworth station. View NW towards Kelvedon on the course of the former Kelvedon & Tollesbury Light Railway. Inworth station had been nearer Tiptree than Inworth. The station and passenger services had been closed 7/5/51, the line closing eventually on 1/10/62.

Boardwalk near Grove Lake The grassy area was wet when I visited indicating the value of the boardwalk. The 1:25,000 map shows the layout of the area much more clearly.
