Lee and Stort Navigation: Lock no 5 - Sawbridgeworth Lock
The route passes under a railway bridge (Kecksy's Bridge) and Sawbridgeworth is 3/4 of a mile from here as a sign indicates while Bishop's Stortford is 3 miles the other way. Despite its proximity to a town, this is another pretty lock, especially the view looking back at it from downstream.
Lee and Stort Navigation: Lock no 7 - Feakes Lock
Feakes Lock is situated a kilometre to the east of Pishiobury Park. This is another pretty location with a remote feel about it despite being only about 200 metres from the railway line. There are nearby fields and hedgerows and this is a pleasant and peaceful place to stop on a warm summer's day. The lock is in a quieter stretch of the route between the built-up areas of Sawbridgeworth and Harlow Town.
Lee and Stort Navigation: Lock no 6 - Sheering Mill Lock
This lock appears about a kilometre after passing Sawbridgeworth Lock and just after passing a residential area of apartments on the other side of the canal. The route crosses Sheering Lock Lane, next to the lock, where a nearby sign welcomes you to 'Hertfordshire, the county of opportunity'. Sheering is the name of a village in the Epping Forest part of Essex.
South end of Hallingbury Road, Lower Sheering
Taken from Station Road, which is just in Essex at this point; the sign partly hidden by the tree just right of centre indicates Hallingbury Road entering Hertfordshire.
