Location
Woodham Mortimer is a small village between Danbury and Maldon and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. The name is derived from the old English meaning "village in the wood" but at the time of the Norman Conquest the parish was known as Little Woodham. The village has a local pub (The Hurdlemakers Arms), the parish church of St Margaret, a driving-range, a village hall and a cricket club.
The nearby town of Maldon, recently named by The Times as the best place to live in the countryside, is a charming settlement on the River Blackwater which dates back to Anglo-Saxon times and is famous, amongst other things, for its Sea Salt and the traditional Thames sailing barges that use Maldon as their home port. The picturesque village of Danbury also has a good choice of shops, amenities and two Preparatory schools (Heathcoate and Elm Green). Woodham Mortimer is also only seven miles due east of the City of Chelmsford and its excellent choice of facilities, which include two outstanding Grammar schools, a bustling shopping centre, a station on the mainline into London Liverpool Street and access onto the A12.
