Loughton, Administrative division in Epping Forest, United Kingdom.
Loughton extends across suburban neighborhoods near ancient woodlands, positioned 12 miles northeast of central London with a population of 33,353 residents.
The area evolved from an Iron Age settlement with an earth fort dating to 500 BC, first documented as Lukintune during the Anglo-Saxon period.
The East 15 Acting School, established from Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop, presents regular theater productions in a converted flint barn called Corbett Theatre.
The London Underground Central line connects Loughton directly to multiple London destinations, complemented by an extensive network of local bus routes.
Two national archives reside in Loughton: the British Postal Museum Store and the National Jazz Archive, preserving British postal and jazz music history.
