Noak Hill?

[ghostie]

Does anyone know Noak Hill (near Romford) at all please? Just wondering what the hacking there is a like? I know there's about ten minutes roadwork to get to off road hacking from the yard I'm looking at, but no idea what it's like once you get there!

Thoughts very welcome

(will probably post in the London board too seeing as it's on the border )

there's some bridleways around there. take a look at an OS map of the area and you'll see them. if you've transport then youv'e also got South Weald Park (between Noak Hill and Brentwood), Epping Forest and Belhus Country Park (South ockendon/aveley) which all have bridleway networks. Epping you pay something like a tenner a day, bought from the Corporation of London office at High Beech (where you can also park).

Also, get in touch with Essex Bridleways Association. They will be able to tell you what the hacking etc is like round there.

Well worth joining. Small fee, easily recouped if you do some of their many pleasure rides.
