Fiddlers Hamlet
Fiddlers Hamlet

Fiddlers Hamlet is a hamlet in the civil parish of Epping, within the Epping Forest District of Essex, England, and is 1 mile (1.6 km) south-east from the market town of Epping, separated by farm and fields. The M11 motorway runs 300 yards (274 m) to the east, with Junction 7 for Harlow being 4 miles (6 km) to the north. The hamlet is at the junction of Stewards Green Road where it becomes Mount Road (to Theydon Mount), and Coopersale Street (road) which runs 800 yards (700 m) due north to the hamlet of Coopersale Street. The village of Coopersale is less than 1 mile to the north. Fiddlers Hamlet takes its name from the Merry Fiddlers Inn, and has been a settlement since at least the 17th century. It was previously in the parish of Theydon Garnon. Fiddlers Hamlet was part of the Epping Union, poor relief provision set up under the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834. In the 19th century the hamlet was seen as within the identifiable Coopersale northern district of Theydon Garnon parish, which itself had become a separate ecclesiastical parish in 1852 as part of the rural deanery of Chigwell. In 1891 the northwestern parts of Theydon Garnon parish including Fiddlers Hamlet, Coopersale Street, and Coopersale were alienated to become part of Epping Urban District (from 1974 Epping Forest District).The local school is Coopersale and Theydon Garnon Church of England Primary School in Coopersale. The previous school at Fiddlers Hamlet was that for Theydon Garnon parish; the old school house still exists. The Merry Fiddlers public house is at the centre of the hamlet, and is listed as the Merry Fiddlers in 19th- and early 20th-century trade directories, and as being the location of the hamlet post box. In the late 19th century, letters to the hamlet were delivered from Epping by foot.There are six Grade II listed buildings in Fiddlers Hamlet. Masons Bridge Farmhouse is at the south of the hamlet below the Merry Fiddlers, and is a timber-framed, jettied and pargetted building dating probably to the 15th century. Ancillary buildings to the farmhouse are a timber-framed and weatherboarded outbuilding dating to the 17th or 18th century, and a 17th-century timber-framed barn which is partly plastered and partly weatherboarded. On Home Farm at the north of the hamlet on Coopersale Street road are three listed farm buildings: a timber-framed and weatherboarded barn with a half-hipped tiled roof which dates to the mid-16th-century; an early 19th-century timber-framed and weatherboarded granary; and a courtyard farm building dating to the 16th century, of previously indeterminate use, timber-framed and weatherboarded, with a hipped roof.A now nonexistent timber-framed house called Gardners, recorded extant in 1956 and .75 miles (1 km) south-west from the hamlet, part dated to the 15th century, with a 16th-century roof, a 17th-century staircase and 16th-century panelling.

Coopersale Street is a hamlet in the civil parish of Epping, within the Epping Forest District of Essex, England, and is 1,300 yards (1,000 m) east from the market town of Epping, separated by farm and fields. The M11 motorway runs 600 yards (500 m) to the east, with Junction 7 for Harlow being 3.5 miles (6 km) to the north. The hamlet is at the junction of Stonards Hill where it becomes Coopersale Street (road), and Houblons Hill which runs north to the village of Coopersale. The hamlet of Fiddlers Hamlet is 750 yards (700 m) to the south. Coopersale Street has been a hamlet since at least the 18th century, witnessed by a 1777 map of Chapman and André, and was previously in the parish of Theydon Garnon. The hamlet was part of the Epping Union, poor relief provision set up under the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834. In the 19th century it was seen as within the identifiable Coopersale northern district of Theydon Garnon parish, which itself had become a separate ecclesiastical parish in 1852 as part of the rural deanery of Chigwell. In 1891 the northwestern parts of Theydon Garnon parish including Coopersale Street, Coopersale and Fiddlers Hamlet were alienated to become part of Epping Urban District (from 1974 Epping Forest District).In trade directories Coopersale Street occupations, including farmers and tradesmen, are listed as such under Coopersale, as is Coopersale Street post office which served the northern area of Theydon Garnon parish. The hamlet was occasionally separately defined under a sub-heading, where in 1894 a Coopersale Street beer retailer and a woman who undertook hand laundry were listed, and in 1933 a married woman who traded as a beer retailer. The local school is Coopersale and Theydon Garnon Church of England Primary School in Coopersale. The hamlet public house is the Theydon Oak. There are five Grade II listed buildings in Coopersale Street. At the centre of the hamlet is the Theydon Oak Inn, a weatherboarded and hipped roof public house dating to the 18th century. At the west is Dover Court, a weatherboarded house, previously a hall house. Opposite the Theydon Oak is a timber framed and weather boarded barn and an originally two-storey timber-framed house dating to the late 16th or early 17th centuries. At the east is Coopersale Lodge, a mid-15th-century two-storey timber-framed and plastered house with late 16th-century additions; an annex to this building was previously the post office.In 2013 the model and TV personality Penny Lancaster opened the Theydon Oak pub's new children's play facilities; Lancaster's husband Rod Stewart considers the Theydon Oak as his local public house when in Epping, especially at Christmastime. The pub won the 2016 East London and West Essex Guardian Food Awards in the Best Public House category.
