Tollerman Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Nearest clay shoot every other Sunday at Thornwood which is just outside Epping.Clays Clay Club at Eastwick ( also shooting Sunday's) or Essex Shooting Ground ( excellent set up ) at Fyfield nr. Ongar shooting Wednesday to Saturday.Best gun shop Eastern Sporting at Great Baddow M25 A12. Bit further out but well worth the extra few miles for their outstanding service.Nearest Gunsmiths Roding Armoury at Abridge or Mays of London Buckhurst Hill .

Geo Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Copfurn at Margaretting and Three acres at Leaden Roding are both good , they are alternate Sundays ,a web search will show you the dates, both run by Olly from Essex shooting School in Fyfield. Copfurn is a particularly nice set up in the forest with a couple of novice/practice stands showing driven birds , great for building confidence. Eastern sporting is a good shop , excellent advice always on tap , they have helped me enormously over the past year or so since receiving my SGC. Also recommend independent shooting supplies at Mountnessing near Brentwood , very friendly and well stocked. Having grown up near Theydon Bois I can confirm that it does exist , a very nice village in Epping forest complete with green and excellent pubs.
