I like this view of a single tree at the end of the farm field opposite Courtland Drive.
Turning right out of Courtland Drive I continued up the High Road to the Metropolitan Police Sports Club. Chigwell Hall stands in the middle of 42 acres of beautiful grounds.
Further up the High Road and St Mary's church can be found next to Chigwell School.
Facing the church is Sheesh restaurant. Until 2010 this was known as Ye Olde Kings Head. Built in 1547 it was immortalised in Charles Dicken's novel 'Barnaby Rudge' as the Maypole Inn.
The peaks of this marquee against a blue sky caught my eye on a sunny walk around Chigwell this morning.
The garden table will not be in use until further notice; still, the rain did provide interesting reflections and patterns for this shot.
The River Roding rises near Dunmow and flows through Essex and the London Borough of Redbridge before it reaches the River Thames. Redbridge takes its name from a crossing of the river; the river then goes on to pass through Ilford and Barking.
A particularly grey Sunday in August saw the procession along the Thames of the ten teams in the Clipper Around the World yacht race.
