Welcome to Little Laver

Little Laver is a small village located in the Epping Forest district of Essex, England. The village is situated on the northern edge of the district, close to the border with Hertfordshire. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, with rolling hills and fields of crops stretching out in every direction. The village itself is small, with a population of just over 200 people, but it has a rich history and a strong sense of community.

One of the most notable features of Little Laver is its church, St. Mary's. The church dates back to the 12th century and is a Grade I listed building. It is a beautiful example of Norman architecture, with a striking tower and a number of interesting features, including a medieval font and a 17th-century pulpit. The church is still in use today and is a focal point for the community, hosting regular services and events throughout the year.

Despite its small size, Little Laver has a number of amenities, including a village hall, a pub, and a primary school. The village hall is a popular venue for events and activities, including fitness classes, dance classes, and community meetings. The pub, The Three Horseshoes, is a traditional English pub that serves food and drink and is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike. The primary school is a small, friendly school that provides education for children aged 4-11. It has a strong reputation for academic excellence and a supportive, nurturing environment.

Local Dog Walks

Pishiobury Park
This Is A Lovely Walk, It's Very Open Although There Are Some Wooded Areas. I Have Never Seen It Crowded Even On A Warm Summer Sunday. Some Of It Is Cow Field So For Those Parts It's Best To Have Your Dog On A Lead Although There Are No Signs Up Urging You To Do This. If You Want To Walk Further You Can Follow The River Stort For Miles, (A Number Of Pubs On Route). Within The Actual Park There Are Some Rolling Hills So I'm Not Sure About Wheel Chair Access. There Is A Railway Track Which Is Not Fenced Off Across The River And Along The Far Edge Of The Park, But You Don't Really Have To Go Anywhere Near This. Bonks Hill Lancashire 5.21 miles Just Outside Harlow, Essex, Heading North.

You Can Walk Further, The River Has A Path Along Side For Miles Or You Can Cut It Shorter, There Are Several Pedestrian Bridges. If You Want To Veer Away From The River There Are Public Foot Paths But Be Aware They End Up Coming Out Onto A Road, Usually Without Pavement.
