About

We were founded in 1928 with land donated by the old Marconi company. We are indebted to those founding fathers like Leonard Davis, who was our original Chairman right up until his death in 1969, or Harry Waterman (Watermans Way is named after him) whose photo you can see in the hall, just before demolition of the old hall in 1966 and Frank Emberson (Emberson Way named after him). Our field, which is where we stage outdoor events, was gifted to us by the Post Office in 1953. The main hall was rebuilt in 1967, with only the rear stage area remaining from the old hall and finally, the bar lounge was added in 1987. We have to thank our generous funders, who over the years have helped us to keep our hall up to date, organisations like Essex County Council, Epping Forest District Council, Stansted Community Trust and The Grange Farm Centre Trust - their help has been invaluable.
