After that it crosses a mill stream this can be seen at 153888. The Witham to Maldon railway was intended to be an economic artery stimulating the growth of Maldon as a significant port. This never really happened and the line closed in the 1960's. A copy of the poster announcing the closure of the railway is displayed at Mancapps Railway Museum Burnham on Crouch see 172473.
