[edit] Notes...

Elsenham, Kelvedon, Great Chesterford, Ingatestone, Marks Tey and Witham all had stations by 1848. A station opened in Harlow in 1841, but unsure which one. The railway passed through Roydon parish in 1848, but no mention of a station at that point.

1841 station in Harlow resolved - Harlow Mill. Harlow Town was originally Burnt Mill, and was open by 1848, but no firm date as yet. Kelvedon and Marks Key are refed and dated.
