It is 10.7 miles (17.2 km) north east of Charing Cross and near to the boundary with the London Borough of Redbridge. It was featured on the ITV1 series "Essex Wives" a program about women in the area that were in business or fairly well-off. Buckhurst Hill is served by Buckhurst Hill tube station which is now on the Central Line of the London Underground.The railway line was opened in 1856, and it was the middle-class development that resulted from this line that gave Buckhurst Hill its typical Victorian ambience. From 1933 to 1974 it formed together with Loughton and Chigwell the Chigwell Urban District. Since 1996 it has had a parish council of its own.
