Some say it’s Essex, while others maintain it’s London, however residential Highams Park is next to Epping Forest, therefore the area is suitably green and tranquil. The rail linking to Liverpool Street is handy for commuters into the city, attracted to the area due to the relative affordability of the houses, which are mostly Victorian or 1930s semis. There is little in terms of shopping as the nearest amenities are in Chingford – the local council refused permission for a Tesco superstore to be constructed, however you will find a golf course, tennis courts and the lake, which is often used for kayaking.
