Hainault Forest was a large wooded area in the English counties of Essex and Greater London which was mostly destroyed after 1851. Popular outrage at the destruction of most of the forest was an important catalyst for the creation of the modern environmental movement.
Less than a tenth of the original forest survives, with many of the surviving fragments managed as a part of Hainault Forest Country Park. The country park also includes other habitats.
The country park is located on the edge of Greater London, with portions in the London Borough of Redbridge, the London Borough of Havering, and the Lambourne parish of the Epping Forest District in Essex.[1]
