Essex dogging: local locations

• Barkingside: Fairlop Water, Barkingside: there are two car parks. Car park one (close to the pub) is good after 8 or 9pm, and closes around 11.30pm. Car park two is good for midday sex, and closes around 6pm.
  Are meets still happening at Redbridge Sports Centre? It used to be in the main car park.
• Basildon: Langdon Hills Country Park. Park outside the church in the road signposted One Tree Hill (off Dry Street), walk back to Dry Street and up the footpath into the woods. Some gay action at this site, but plenty of woodland for swinging couples and doggers.
• Chelmsford: Don't use South Woodham Ferrers rugby club, as the police are watching it and stopping guys and couples, although as it was a cottaging location it's mainly guys. Either way, give it a miss.
  Any couples want to meet at the Chelmsford FC car park? Try after 10, when the main lights go out and we can use the big park and the woods close by. We're heading there Friday night, or maybe at the weekend, so drop us a message and let's meet. COUPLES ONLY.
• Burnham-on-Crouch: Marsh Road: over the humpback bridge, first lay-by on the right. Gay and straight action goes on here, and there's no hassle from the police. Busy nightly after about 9pm.
• Chigwell: A small car park opposite the Camelot pub in Chigwell. You can often watch couples fucking on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11pm onwards.
• Clacton: Holland Haven Country Park, on the coast between Clacton and Frinton-on-Sea. A big place, but there's some car fun to be found, with occasional joining in.
• Colchester: Dogging in Colchester can be found in the car park at Friday Woods on Friday and Saturday nights after 10.30. Quite a few couples in cars.
  There's also a great dogging site at Cudmore Grove, on Mersea Island.
  On the A120 between Colchester and Braintree: heading towards Braintree, go past the third turning on the left to Coggeshall, then look for a white P on a blue sign. The lay-by can't be seen from the road, as it's behind trees. Action all the time, mostly gay, but some couples dogging at night.
  Try the bottom of Kingsland Road by the beach: I've seen some good action with couples.
• Danbury: Danbury Ford: the long grass has been mown recently, but it's still an active dogging site. Follow the road out of Boreham village towards Danbury; on the back road, about a mile after the bridge over the river, turn left where it's signposted FORD. Half a mile down on the right, park up, walk into the field, go down to the bottom, hang around for a while and have fun.
• Hainault Forest: Hainault Forest Country Park has two car parks, but the furthest one is where all the dogging happens. People also leave their cars and go into the woods for action.
• Hutton: Church Road, Hutton, off Hanging Hill Lane and Hall Green Lane. Opposite the church there's parking for about four cars, with a footpath and some woods right on the edge of the parking area. Great action for voyeurs some nights.
• Leigh-on-Sea: In the bushes off the bridleway on the edge of Belfairs Park golf course. Most weekend evenings in the summer. Mainly straight, but some gay. Very open and friendly for dogging.
  Behind Leigh-on-Sea station, via a side road, there's lots of parking by the sea wall (not the station car park), or further down, over a narrow bridge, there's tarmac parking by the boat slipway.
  Leigh Marshes, just behind Leigh-on-Sea station: go to Two Tree Island, past the golf range and over the bridge. There's a car park on the left, and one opposite. Walk to the furthest bird hide, among the bushes and undergrowth.
• Lakeside: Drop me a message and I'll tell you where and when. My wife is a big woman, so Essex BBW admirers only.
• Romford: The Halfway House on the A127 between Romford and Southend: a fantastic dogging site, with action all the time. Heading towards Southend from Romford, about 10 miles along on the left, look for a pub called the Halfway House. Turn into its car park, drive past the front and out onto the lane on the right, turn left onto the lane, and almost immediately on the left, park on the road. Go into the field and walk around, and it won't be long before you come across some dogging action. This site is actually part of Thorndon Country Park, so look out for dog walkers, but most people are there for the same reason as you, so go on, have loads of fun.
• Epping Forest: Theydon Bois, just past the Wake Arms roundabout: park up, then head towards the forest. I've seen loads going on: a few gay guys, but loads of couples too.
• St Osyth: St Osyth official nudist beach: follow the signs to St Osyth and enter via Hutleys caravan park. You can park on the beach from the end of May. Most action takes place from 4pm until 9pm, when the beach closes. Gay guys use the far end of the beach.
• Witham: In the bushes and trees by the disused toilet at the Chelmsford end of Witham. Very active most nights, mostly gay, but some couples too.
• Southend-on-Sea: Does anyone know a good place to meet up? We're a Southend couple looking for men, but we can't find any decent Southend dogging sites.

Dogging etiquette in Essex

Essex's spots range from Epping Forest and country parks to sea walls, marshes and nudist beaches, so a little etiquette goes a long way. Watch from a distance unless you're invited closer, and take a no, or a car driving off, as a no. Flashing headlights or an interior light usually means a couple are happy to be watched, but never assume. Keep well away from houses, walkers, families and anyone who hasn't chosen to be there, and leave each spot as you found it. For more tips, read our dogging advice page.
