Abridge is a small village in the district of Epping Forest in Essex, England, set beside the River Roding. Its name reflects the historic crossing of the river and the settlement sits on the rural fringe of London, where lanes, woodland and farmland meet the commuter belt.
Today the village retains a traditional feel with local pubs, shops and community activities, while the surrounding countryside and forested areas make it popular with walkers and equestrian interests. Historically a modest coaching and local market centre, its economy is now a mix of small local businesses and residents who travel into the capital for work.
