About

Ongar ward lies in the western part of the Epping Forest district, encompassing the historic market town of Chipping Ongar and surrounding rural settlements. The area is characterised by a mix of residential development and agricultural land, with the River Roding flowing through its boundaries. Local infrastructure centres on the High Street, which retains a traditional layout and serves the community's commercial needs.

A notable feature is the preserved Ongar railway station, a terminus of the Central line until 1994, which now operates as a heritage railway. The ward contains several protected green spaces and historic buildings, including the remains of Ongar Castle motte. Its landscape transitions from the town's built environment to open fields and country lanes on its outskirts, defining its semi-rural character within the district.
