We are the Maldon and Dengie Hundred Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Meet at Hatfield Peverel village hall car park, Maldon Road, Hatfield Peverel. Circular walk, breakfast at Hatfield Peverel village hall coffee lounge.
Maldon and Dengie breakfast walks start early, last for four to five miles, and aim to end in time for breakfast at around 10pm on a Saturday morning.
Hatfield Peverel is 6 miles (10 km) north-east of Chelmsford. The parish is the site of a priory founded (to atone for her sins) by the Saxon Ingelrica, wife of Ranulph Peverel and reputed to be the mistress of William the Conqueror. Hatfield means a 'heathery space in the forest'; Peverel refers to William Peverel, the Norman knight granted lands there by William the Conqueror after the Norman invasion in 1066. It is sited on high ground east of the River Ter, between Boreham and Witham on the A12
