Chelmer Village

Chelmer Village is a suburb in the east of Chelmsford. The development was started by Countryside Residential PLC in the 1980s using an holistic approach to create a self-contained community. It comprises a variety of modern suburban dwellings, the Chelmer Village Retail Park and Dukes Park Industrial Estate. The estate was built upon the farmland of the historic Springfield Barnes manor, and included the former Barnes Farm, Prentices Farm, Horns Farm and Willshers.

The River Chelmer flows along the southern and eastern edges of the suburb, the river also forms part of the Chelmer and Blackwater Navigation, while the development is bordered in the west and north by the A138. A number of historic features remain nearby the river. These include Barnes Mill Lock, Barnes Mill (now a privately owned home) and the Barnes Farm milking parlour, now a bar and restaurant (the Miller and Carter). Barnes Farm infant and junior schools also derive their names from the farmland they were built on.
