Here is The Route Details

  • AT M25 junction 25, take the A10 to Hoddesdon.

  • Take the exit after you have passed Brookfield
    Centre (Tesco and M&S), signpost A1170 to Broxbourne.

  • At next roundabout turn left to Wormley &
    Broxbourne.

  • When you get to the traffic lights by the tower
    of flats, turn right B194 and follow the signs to
    Broxbourne Station.

  • When you get to the station, follow the road you
    are on, past the Broxbourne Lido, through the
    pedestrian lights, until you get to another set of
    traffic lights after some shops.

  • Turn left at the lights onto North Street, and
    follow the road up a hill, then down, past G & W
    Fencing company (with windmill) sharp bend left then
    sharp right until you see a sign for "Lignacite works"
    which is on a right hand bend. Turn left here onto Meadgate Road.
    There should be a sign up for Broxbourne Sailing Club
    & the Windsurfing school.

  • Keep going past the lake and boats on your
    RIGHT, and once you've passed over the bridge/weir,
    immediately after this, turn left down a small track.
    Be careful that you don't go too far and end up in the
    River Lea (!), but the track should be easily seen.
    The track will lead you through a gate marked ESSA members alongside the Central Lagoon
    on your left and you will reach a small car park at
    the end. The building in front of you is ESSA.

For those that use GPS, the post code you need is EN9 2PB which is not our base, but very near to the top of our lake. GPS lie about how to get to us - Some GPS systems may take you through Nazeing Glass works, that will get you lost, so ignore the nice lady or man shouting at you to turn around!

Best bet is if you use GPS, print the directions out above, and use with the maps. The OS grid is TL383 070
