Chipping Ongar is only 12 miles outside or Romford.
The ancient city of the market and the ancient civil parish is part of the Parish of Ongar in the Epping Forest District of Essex, with a name that gives a wink to its long history.
His name is derived from the words in ancient English for ‘market’ and ‘grazing land’, and it is understood that he has links to Saxons and Normans.
Throughout the historical name, it has more physical evidence of its inhabitants, with the remains of the castle of Ongar a place to visit.
It is understood that the Norman Castle is based on the leg at the end of the eleventh century before it was partial demolished between 1558 and 1603.
In the town itself, it is believed that there are more than 100 listed buildings, as well as a plate in memory of the Missionary Explorer Dr. David Livingstone on the Archway to the United Reform Church.
It is said that Dr. Livingstone lived in a cabin in the city in the mid -nineteenth century.
The author responsible for the letter of the famous Nursery Rima Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is buried in the cemetery of the United Reformation Church.
The area also houses the Epping Ongar railroad, which claims to be the longest railroad in Essex and the closest to London.
Not only this, but the heritage railway line extends in an anterior part of the pipe network that was closed in 1994.
According to the transport for London, the line begins a steam service and has now made a complete circle when returning to its underground appearance prior to London with steam trains and the occasional operational rail vehicle of the collection of the London Transport Museum.
