About

Passmores & The High are central wards in Harlow, formed as part of the post‑war New Town. The area mixes mid‑20th‑century housing with later infill developments and was planned with linear green corridors; many gardens and rear plots back directly onto those corridors, creating continuous strips of public green space that run between streets. Passmores includes a local secondary school campus that serves the neighbourhood and a network of short residential streets, community halls and small local shops concentrated around its main roads.

The High sits along the town’s retail spine and contains a combination of pedestrianised shopping streets, parade shops and civic facilities. Local services include primary schools, sports pitches and community projects run from parish halls and social centres, and regular bus routes link the wards to the wider Harlow area. Day‑to‑day life here is shaped by the New Town layout: walkable routes, clear separations between through traffic and local streets, and clusters of amenities placed to serve nearby housing rather than large destination tourism.
