Epping Forest is a magnificent expanse of woodland far
larger than Hatfield Forest and much more diverse. It is not in the
Stort valley, but stands on a high ridge overlooking the Lea Valley. It is
included here simply because of its proximity and because it is quite superb.

The best guide to Epping Forest is
by Ken Hoy M.B.E.. Ken was the founder of the influential
Friends of Epping Forest. The Epping Forest Act of 1878 was
designed to protect Epping Forest for the enjoyment of
all. In 1978, a Centenary Walk was devised and since then,
Friends of Epping Forest and other walkers meet annually at Manor Park
to walk the fifteen miles to Epping town.  |
