Explore Buckhurst Hill
Known for
Epping Forest (directly adjacent, one of London's great ancient woodlands), the Central Line terminus connection, the affluent commuter village character, and an Essex town that feels like a Londoner's country escape
A little history
Buckhurst Hill developed as an affluent Victorian commuter settlement when the Great Eastern Railway arrived. The town sits on the edge of Epping Forest — 6,000 acres of ancient woodland — giving residents access to one of Britain's finest urban forests. The Central Line brings the town within 30 minutes of central London.
Epping Forest from Buckhurst Hill is extraordinary — ancient pollarded hornbeams, deer, and genuine wildness minutes from the tube. Queen's Road for independent shops and cafes. The views from High Beech in the forest.
