We are the Maldon and Dengie Hundred Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This walk starts at Hatfield Peverel village hall car park and will be about five miles long. We will stop at Papermill Lock for coffee.
Maldon and Dengie Ramblers' Sunday walks are normally between five and seven miles long and are circular walks.
Hatfield Peverel is a village and civil parish at the centre of Essex. It is 6 miles north-east of Chelmsford. Hatfield means a 'heathery space in the forest'; Peverel refers to William Peverel, the Norman knight granted lands in the area by William the Conqueror after the Norman invasion of 1066.
Hatfield Peverel 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.
