About Chingford

A quiet, cosy suburb on the northeast edge of London and bordering on Essex, Chingford has a real community feel. The areas within the town are Chingford Green, Chingford Hatch, Chingford Mount, Friday Hill, Hale End, Highams Park, and South Chingford. The suburb is in Zone 5 and a short train ride from central London. But thanks to nearby Epping Forest, it has the feel of a country retreat. The town has an abundance of amenities with plenty of local retailers, supermarkets, bars, pubs, restaurants, and boutiques. While you’ll find a mix of people, the area has become particularly popular among young families.
