Equally, in the context of an overall Policy Framework, the proposed use for particular sites might change again due to changing circumstances. Anne Mallinson The separation of the two main sections enables Chairman, Lee Valley Regional Park Authority the Authority to reflect its flexibility and sensitivity to change and presents it with the opportunity to keep the Plan up to date as and when fundamental changes occur. This Part One of the new Plan outlines the Objectives and Policies that will enable the Authority to realise its Vision for the Regional Park. A Vision that translates its basic remit as defined in the establishing Act into meaningful, tangible goals for the benefit of the region’s population. A Vision that others can share in and contribute to by embracing the Objectives and Policies outlined here and by pursuing them as vigorously as the Authority will. Our attention will increasingly be focused on utilising to the full the unique physical and natural resources within the Regional Park, particularly the areas of open water. We will remain vigilant and determined in protecting the Park from unsuitable development and look for every opportunity to bring land into use for leisure and recreation.

    © Georgina Green ~ Epping Forest though the Ages Epping Forest Preface On 6th May 1882 Queen Victoria visited High Beach where she declared through the Ages "it gives me the greatest satisfaction to dedicate this beautiful Forest to the use and enjoyment of my people for all time" . This royal visit was greeted with great enthusiasm by the thousands of people who came to see their by Queen when she passed by, as their forefathers had done for other sovereigns down through the ages . Georgina Green My purpose in writing this little book is to tell how the ordinary people have used Epping Fo rest in the past, but came to enjoy it only in more recent times. I hope to give the reader a glimpse of what life was like for those who have lived here throughout the ages and how, by using the Forest, they have physically changed it over the centuries. The Romans, Saxons and Normans have each played their part, while the Forest we know today is one of the few surviving examples of Medieval woodland management. The Tudor monarchs and their courtiers frequently visited the Forest, wh ile in the 18th century the grandeur of Wanstead House attracted sight-seers from far and wide. The common people, meanwhile, were mostly poor farm labourers who were glad of the free produce they could obtain from the Forest. None of the Forest ponds are natural . some of them having been made accidentally when sand and gravel were extracted . while others were made by Man for a variety of reasons.
