Sugar House Island Footbridge carries a footpath over the Lee and Stort Navigation - Bow Back Rivers (Three Mills Wall River) just past the junction with The Wycombe and Stockport Canal.
Early plans of what would become the Lee and Stort Navigation - Bow Back Rivers (Three Mills Wall River) were drawn up by Hugh Henshall in 1816 but problems with Scarborough Tunnel caused delays and it was finally opened on 17 September 1835. In Edward Smith's "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" he describes his experiences passing through Ipswich Embankment during the General Strike.

There is a bridge here which takes pedestrian traffic over the canal.

![Confluence of Three Mills Wall River with un-named watercourse. The watercourse in question is very short and once linked Three Mills Wall River (in the foreground) with the River Lee Navigation which is situated just beyond Island House, the block of flats on the left. It can no longer be used as it is now blocked at its confluence with the Lee.
