The Parish of Great
Waltham is one of the largest in Essex in area, covering
approximately 2,488 hectares (6,147 acres), but with only 2,100
residents is not densely populated. It consists of two villages -
Great Waltham (also known as Church End), and Ford End, and four
hamlets – Howe Street, Littley Green, North End and Broads Green.
The parish is approximately 5km north to south, 3km west to east and
at its most southerly is 7km from Chelmsford. |
| The major activity
is agriculture although it employs very few people these days. The
majority of local workers commute to towns up to 40 miles away and
to London. The M11, the A12, the A130, the A131, the A120, Stansted
Airport and Chelmsford station are not far away. |

Great Waltham Parish Plan
(Includes North End). Parish Plan projects were initiated by the Government and encouraged
through County Councils, as part of the nationwide drive to devolve
decision-making to local levels, where appropriate. Great
Waltham Parish Council sponsored this Parish Plan; it being
fundamental that the local Community should produce the document,
using local consultation to identify the ideas and issues of concern
to the residents of the Parish. Like most community projects,
the preparation of the Parish Plan depended upon local volunteers.
