Heronsgate

Now here is an inexplicable piece of nonsense: the parish of Mill End and Heronsgate with West Hyde finds the first and last lnk whilst St John is open. To be fair there's not much to nick here it being a tiny chapel of ease but it is rather sweet.

Heronsgate itself is a very odd place. Originally a chartist settlement a Google earth search shows the original layout of the plots. It was also here that "from 1936 to 1955, a villa in Heronsgate was the global headquarters of the International Esperanto-League".

Neither Pevsner nor Mee bothered which seems a shame.
