HERONGATE, a hamlet in East Horndon and Ingrave parishes, Essex; 3½ miles SE of Brentwood. It has a post office under Brentwood. Two barns are here, remains of Heron Hall, the seat of the Tyrrells, taken down in 1790.
Herongate is now part of BRENTWOOD District. Click here for graphs and data of how BRENTWOOD has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Herongate itself, go to Statistics.
