It sat in Epping Forest and consisted of just a few scattered homes along the historic road from Woodford to Loughton. Prior to the building of the railways, Buckhurst Hill was on the stage coach route in between London and Cambridge, Norwich, Bury St Edmunds and Dunmow. Historically it was a part of the parish of Chigwell; there was no road connecting the 2 communities and in order to get to church, parishioners had to cross the River Roding at Woodford. The establishment of Buckhurst Hill Station in 1856 saw a quick expansion in the population of the area, with nearly 600 new homes being constructed near the station by 1871. The town also hosts the Buckhurst Hill Football Club and Buckhurst Hill Cricket Club.
