The very first historical record of Buckhurst Hill is in 1135, when reference was made to 'La Bocherste', becoming in later years 'Bucket Hill', originally meaning a hill covered with beech trees. It sat in Epping Forest and consisted of only some scattered houses along the ancient road from Woodford to Loughton. Ahead of the construction of the railways, Buckhurst Hill was on the stage coach route in between London and Cambridge, Norwich, Bury St Edmunds and Dunmow. Traditionally it was a part of the parish of Chigwell; there was no road which connected the two communities and so as to get to church, residents had to cross the River Roding at Woodford. The opening of Buckhurst Hill Station in 1856 saw a fast expansion in the population of the area, with almost six hundred new homes having been constructed close to the station by 1871. The town also hosts the Buckhurst Hill Football Club and Buckhurst Hill Cricket Club.
