The Wivenhoe & Brightlingsea line was absorbed by the GER on 9 June 1893. The line became part of the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) in 1923 and then the Eastern Region of British Railways in 1948 following nationalisation of the railways.

Residents of the town who live inside the gates of the crossing attach a particular status to this fact.
