Epping Forest is an ancient woodland stretching 13 miles in length, from Manor Park in east London to Epping in Essex. Here you'll find majestic old pollarded trees, iron age mounds, wooded glades, reed-fringed ponds and glorious meadows. 

Owned and managed by the Corporation of London, the Forest has been maintained as a public open space since the passing of the Epping Forest Act 1878.
