Epping is a market town and civil parish in the Epping Forest district of the county of Essex in England.The market day was anciently Friday but is now on Monday.
Epping is widely known in Germany for being the home of Peter, David, Betty and Helga, featured in many textbooks used to teach English to German children. It is twinned with the German town of Eppingen in northwest Baden-Württemberg.
Epping lies about 17 miles north-east of the centre of London towards the northern end of Epping Forest on a ridge of land between the River Roding and River Lea valleys. The town had just over 11,000 inhabitants in 2001.
Most of the population live in the built up area centred on the main road (B1393) and station. About a thousand people live in the large hamlet (or small village) of Coopersale which, while physically separated from Epping by forest land, is still part of the civil parish. A few dozen households make up the hamlets of Coopersale Street and Fiddlers Hamlet. Much of the eastern part of the present parish was until 1895 in the parish of Theydon Garnon.
