Leyton Marsh is located in Leyton in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. == Geography == The marsh is bordered by the Walthamstow Marshes to the north, and by Coppermill Fields, the Lee Navigation and the River Lee Flood Relief Channel. Much of the original area has been taken over for other uses. The remaining open land is split into two distinct areas: * Leyton Marsh, to the north of Lea Bridge Road, adjoining the Walthamstow Marsh Nature Reserve. The part of the marsh north east of the Lea Bridge Road contains a large field (Porter's Field Meadow), which is used for a variety of events, including an annual schools countryside teaching event.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.countrysidelive.org.uk/LeeValley/leevalleymain.htm )〕 The area is also used by local people for sporting events, and is part of various cycling and running routes that take in Leyton Marsh as well as other local parks and open spaces. * The Marsh Lane area of Seymour Road Playing Field and Marsh Lane Playing Field, north and south of Marsh Lane respectively. Since August 2012 its official name has been Leyton Jubilee Park.〔(Waltham Forest pamphlet on Leyton Jubilee Park )〕 This area is now cut off from the rest of the marsh, connected only by a long pedestrian bridge over the railway. Access from Lea Bridge Road is at the end of Seymour Road. The Dagenham Brook forms the eastern extent of the historical Leyton Marshes. Other areas which were historically part of Leyton Marshes are now put to other uses: * Lee Valley Ice Centre * Lea Valley Riding Centre * WaterWorks Nature Reserve Lammas Lane, despite historic associations, is buried in an industrial estate alongside the railway.〔(Google map )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Leyton Marshes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
