Another random website i stumbled across, looks like a purpose built set of jumps you have to pay per session near Highfield, never been and only know whats on the webpage !!

Quote:
Essex Trials and Jump Centre

We are developing a purpose built Trials and Jump Centre at Barrow Farm in Highwood, between Brentwood and Chelmsford in Essex. We are currently building a variety of different types of Trial sections. These sections cater for all abilities of rider and will be updated and varied regularly to ensure there is always a fresh challenge for our riders. We also provide runs of dirt jumps for you to enjoy and also have a Pump Track and Mini-ramp. Hopefully, we may also include a foam pit in the future, when funding is available.

Sounds good, I've heard of a jump park place near there, so must be the same one

Been there, we ride past it on a local ride.
No hills so the jumps etc you will have to pedal hard for or get a roll in :shock:
Its on private land (as in someones back garden) i think an old horse field.

The weirdo trails riders love it, and i think it held a national recently? i know it was in MBUK.

Even though it's on the flat it's got to be better than nothing!
