What's on in Waltham Abbey

Waltham Abbey sits snugly in Essex where the river meets the road, and there is plenty to do without leaving the village limits. The old abbey grounds have hosted markets for centuries while local pubs put on quiz nights that keep the whole street awake well past midnight. It is a place where history does not gather dust but stands ready for a good laugh. We find live music in the community halls and craft fairs at the market square if the weather permits. Family days happen regularly so parents can watch their children run free while they enjoy a pint nearby. Near Here gathers these scattered bits of local life into one tidy spot so you do not need to hunt for fun on a rainy Tuesday.
