About

Kelvedon Hatch and Doddinghurst lie in the Borough of Brentwood, Essex, set among farmland and pockets of mixed woodland. The area is crossed by footpaths and bridleways that link fields, small lanes and hedgerows. Each village has a village hall, a pub and community groups that run clubs, fetes and allotments, alongside a primary school. Local lanes carry agricultural traffic and commuter flows; residents draw on shops and services in nearby centres for everyday needs.

Kelvedon Hatch contains a Cold War–era underground bunker, built to house government and military staff and now operated as a museum with long corridors, control rooms and preserved communications equipment open to visitors on scheduled days. Doddinghurst retains a parish church and a cluster of cottages around a small green, with regular village events and walking routes out across arable land and woods. The pattern of fields, lanes and small woods defines the local character within the Brentwood borough.
