    The local railway station means London is accessible in under an hour direct into either London Liverpool Street or Southminster. Having Southend Airport only 6 miles away, National, European, and international travel is a simple affair. Plus, the town is connected by the A132 to the A130, A127, and other main routes. The B1012 goes east to Southminster and Burnham-on-Crouch and the B1418 north to Danbury.

    Many residential areas are adjacent to high-quality open spaces with some offering scenic views towards the countryside, the river Crouch, and Fenn Creek.

    Interestingly, many street names in the southwestern part of the town are taken from the works of J. R. R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. Roads such as Gandalf’s Ride, Gimli Watch, Rivendell Vale, Celeborn Street, Hobbiton Hill, and Arwen Grove are all familiar.

    South Woodham Ferrers Schools & Education

    When you are planning your relocation to a new area, one of the pressing concerns for parents is how well the local schools perform.

    There are several excellent feeder primary schools and pre-schools available for smaller children.

    Woodville Primary School is an Ofsted “outstanding” school and as a result very popular with parents. However, as this school is often oversubscribed, there are other options with all but one school achieving a “good” rating from Ofsted.

    Many of the local state primaries filter into the William de Ferrers School. An academy school, it has around 1,216 pupils aged between 11 and 18. It has been awarded specialist sports, maths, and computing college status.

    Following the latest inspection, it was judged to be a ‘Good’ school by Ofsted and well on its way to being ‘Outstanding’. One of the inspectors commented that she would gladly send her children to this school.
