Chigwell Row

Chigwell Row is a small hamlet in the district of Epping Forest, Essex, England, lying a short distance from the larger village of Chigwell and within the outer London commuter belt. It sits amid farmland and pockets of ancient woodland that tie into the wider Epping Forest landscape, so it retains a distinctly semi‑rural feel despite good road and rail links to the capital.

Historically it grew as an agricultural settlement with cottages and farm buildings, and many properties still show that older character; today the area is largely residential with a small local economy of services and hospitality and a mix of long‑standing villagers and commuters to London. Proximity to woods and country lanes makes it attractive for walking, riding and outdoor leisure, while local clubs and village events keep a quiet but close‑knit community life.
