    Ockendon Road is a special location for several reasons. The trees, and the flower beds which 
    surround them, make it an especially attractive place to live. It's quiet yet there are a 
    wide range of amenities - shops, restaurants, pubs, etc - close by. Residents get together 
    from time to time to ramble in the countryside and for yoga classes, painting and other past-times 
    in which there is a shared interest. This website is intended to make residents aware of 
    the activities which make the road such a good place to live and to encourage others to 
    participate. 
    
    
      

    Ockendon's Milkman

    Barry loves his job, getting a particular buzz out of early mornings - he thinks it might be his gypsy genes (he is of Romany descent). He's been a milkman for over 25 years, driving in from Bishop Stortford at crack of dawn, which means he can spend the afternoon in the garden with a chilled beer. He's good at quick jokes that don't really bear repeating.
