About Abbess Roding
Abbess Roding is a small village in Essex and it is one of the eight villages and hamlets that are known as The Rodings. The village was named after the patron of a local parish church, the Abbess of Barking. Abbess Roding is located in the Epping Forest district and is 5.2 miles away from Essex. It was mentioned in the Domesday Book under the name of Roinges and the rich history of the area is visible in several 16th and 17th century buildings in the village.

During the 18th and 19th centuries, Abbess Roding was situated in the coach route that went from Dunmow to Ongar and then to London. At the middle of the 19th century, the route was no longer used, as a railway station had been built at Bishops Stortford, which is located in the vicinity of the village. Nowadays, there is a bus route going from Dunmow to Brentwood, which serves Abbes Roding.
For most of its history, the main occupation of the inhabitants of the village and parish of Abbess Roding has been agriculture. A resident landowner is documented to have lived at Rookwood Hall from 1500 to 1700, but apart from this period, no other landowners seem to have lived in the area. Besides agriculture, there is some evidence of brickmaking in the area, suggested by the name Brick Kiln Wood, and also malt production in the Defoe part of the village.
There are several buildings that date back to the 16th and 17th century in Abbess Roding. The majority of them are located on the Little Laver road, which is, paradoxically, the area of Abbess Roding that suffered most changes in the course of history. Even though the Rodings are located relatively close to London (30 miles), the area is isolated and entirely rural. Some of the houses in the area of Abbess Roding are still missing modern facilities and services.
Two famous people were born in Abbess Roding and probably spent their childhood there: John Thurloe, who was the Secretary of State under the government of Cromwell and Sir Anthony Browne, who was the Chief of Justice of Common Pleas.
