The village of Moreton is a small, rural parish in the district of Epping Forest, in Essex, England. It occupies gentle arable countryside and hedgerow-lined lanes typical of the county, with a scattering of historic cottages and a parish church that hint at its long rural past.
Economically the area remains rooted in agriculture but also sits within the outer commuter belt of London, so local life blends farming and small businesses with commuters; community activity is centred on the village hall, occasional fêtes and efforts to conserve the local landscape and listed buildings.
