• Set back off the main road this is a very busy spot for bi gay and straight fun. Turn left opposite plough motel and follow road round until past last house on left. It is a through road which joins back onto A128 but lots of stopping places and bushes for outdoor fun. Lots of evidence of fun here as in clothing mags etc.

Chalkney Woods, Earles Colne

• Follow the a120 past Coggeshall going towards Colchester till you come to the cross roads of Earles Colne and Coggeshall turn left towards Earles Colne and follow the road to the end. Turn right and take your very next left this turning is concealed as its on a bend if you have gone under the bridge you have gone to far. Once you have turned right you will be driving for a short while in a residential area don't worry you have only got a few more yards till you see a sign saying Chalkney Woods follow up the single track road which will lead you to a large well covered and enclosed car park this road is a little bumpy but don't worry good point with this site is that you can see other vehicles approaching with out them knowing you are already there. Well hidden but a great site. Used quite a lot for dog walkers during the day but at night there is action

Chelmsford

• Howe green On the roundabout coming out of Chelmsford going to the A130 take the Howe green exit (one before A130) then immediately left into small turning. There are houses near the bottom of this dead end, but on Sundays at about 10.30 women and men head to the middle of this little road for some action. See you there!

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.

Childerditch and Halfway house

• Its worth mentioning that both these sites are mostly gay. Also the authorities are very aware of the sites and actively policed. This is mainly due to it being a large and popular country park for families and dog walkers. There have been numerous incidents reported of doggers actively and at times aggressively harassing non dogging members of the public. Boy racers also meet at the Chiderditch car park and often anti-gay graffiti can be seen at the site.

Chingford plains

• Behind the Queen Elizabeth hunting lodge. Can get busy but needs more couples and single females.
• Turn into rangers road from Epping new road. Go past the pub on the right. Turn right then it's about 500 yards on the right.

Eastbrookend Country Park

• The Chase, Eastbrookend Country Park, seen plenty of action here drive down as if your going to cemetery but stop anywhere on l/h side before cemetery you will see plenty of action. getting better all the time.

Best time for this is between 5pm-5am give it a shot
