Our History
Steeped in history, Brentwood’s
name evolved from the “burnt wood”
of the charcoal burners, set up in
forest clearings, on their way to
Canterbury.
Thomas à Becket’s murder in 1170
and his canonisation in 1173 played
an important part in the foundation of
the town. Miracles occured at his
tomb and pilgrims travelled to
the shrine.
Brentwood was also home to the boy
martyr, William Hunter. One of the
main roads in the town centre is
named after him.
A memorial stands close by Wilson’s
Corner in the heart of Brentwood and
commemorates the silkweaver’s
apprentice who was burnt for his
religious beliefs at the age of
nineteen on 26th March 1555.

Wider Brentwood
The borough of Brentwood is a collection of villages and
parishes with diverse offerings. It’s the sort of place where,
on a lazy Sunday afternoon, you may simply want to point
the car and see where you end up!
Shenfield
A short distance from Brentwood Town Centre, Shenfield is
s
a traditional village. Independent traders dominate the high
street. Serviced by a railway station that has links to centrall
London, this is a popular residence for commuters to the city.
ty.
Ingatestone
With a population of around 4,500 this traditional village was
established in Saxon times and was mentioned in the Domesday
Book. Within a conservation area, there are a number of listed
buildings maintaining a beautiful village elegance.
Blackmore
Blackmore is one of the more attractive Essex villages.
To the South, on a moated site, is the church of St Laurence,
which is all that remains of an Augustine Priory of Blackmore,
founded in the 12th century. After the dissolution of the Priory
in 1525, the chancel of its church was demolished, but the
rest of the building was retained as the parish church. The
15th century timber bell tower is one of the finest in England.
Doddinghurst
The name Doddinghurst is of Anglo-Saxon origin and means
'the wood of Dudda or his people'. It is first recorded in the
Domesday book as 'Doddenhenc'.
Herongate
Herongate is located close to the extensive park of Thorndon
Hall. The manor was anciently called Ging-Ralph, or Ralph’sing
and it was purchased from the Mordaunt family by Sir John
Petre, the first Lord Petre, in 1573. A new Thorndon Hall
was built in 1770 by the 9th Lord Petre.
Mountnessing
The main feature of Mountnessing is it’s windmill, Mountnessing
Post Mill, which was built in the early 19th century. It is preserved
and owned by Essex County Council and is a picturesque timber
structure on a circular brick base. The Mill is no longer used,
but it remains a landmark visible for miles around.

RAINER HUGHES, Solicitors, have been
in existence, albeit under different names
since 1965.
Brian Hughes, (Brian) set up in practice as Hughes & Co. in
Billericay High Street in 1965 and in Hutton Road, Shenfield
in 1996: in 2007 Sanjay Panesar, the Senior Partner of Anami
Law, a successful litigation practice based in Epping, acquired
Brian’s practice and the two firms were rebranded as RAINER
HUGHES when Anami Law relocated its Head Office to Oak
House in Crossways, Shenfield in 2011.
The Hutton Road (High Street) office of Rainer Hughes offers a friendly,
reliable and cost efficient service in the fields of Residential and Commercial
Conveyancing, Wills, Trusts, Probates and Lasting Powers of Attorney,
and Employment Law.
The Crossways office which has an impressive reputation for representing
Clients successfully in the High Court specialises in Customs & Excise
Litigation and Matrimonial Law.
The friendly, courteous and highly experienced staff in the High Street
office are led by Angela, Svetlana and Brian.
Brian also supervises the administration of the High Street office and
ensures that it offers a consistently high standard of service.
Brian Hughes
Head of Commercial
Conveyancing and
Employment Law
Rainer Hughes do not regard Clients as “units of profit” as do many
impersonal Mortgage Lenders and Estate Agents: they regard Clients
as individuals each with different needs and requirements that merit a
personal rather than an impersonal “tick box” service.
The staff of Rainer Hughes offer home visits, where appropriate, and do
their best to make Clients aware that their High Street practice is a family
oriented practice serving the Community within which it is located.
