HAINULT FOREST

The Imperial Gazetteer of England & Wales...., by John Marius Wilson. circa 1866

HAINULT FOREST, an ancient forest in Essex; averagely 3½ miles NW of Romford. Here, at its south end, near Aldborough-Hatch, stood the famous Fairlop oak, 36 feet in girth, and 300 feet in circumference of head. A great annual assemblage, or fair, was held under that tree on the first Friday of July. The tree was partly destroyed by fire in 1805; and was finally overwhelmed by a storm in 1820. See EPPING.
