This tranquil village has been a winner of the 'Best
Kept Village in Essex' award in recent years. The uncluttered
and mainly family style housing and bungalows can be
found scattered around a network of roads and country
lanes. Focused around the village centre there is a
selection of traditional shops, two public houses, a
pretty church which dates back to 1068 and the 'Jubilee
Oak', planted to commemorate Queen Victoria's Jubilee.
Other facilities include a primary school, two recreation
grounds and a supermarket superstore, which is located
just South of the village, where easy access can still
be gained to the A133 Trunk Road.
