Although this area of rough grassland is marked as 'playing fields' on the Ordnance Survey map it looks like some time since they were used as such. They are the private property of Epping Forest College, which is just the other side of Borders Lane, although there is free access. The higher land in the distance is on the other side of the Roding Valley.
