Ulting is a small village located in the remote countryside of the county of Essex, England. It shares its borders with Langford and Nounsley, and is part of Maldon.
History
Ulting was the location of the first sugar beet factory in England,[2] although its useful life was cut short by cheap imports of cane sugar.
Church
All Saints, the village church, has been standing since 1150, with a major restoration taking place in the 1870s. The church was once a place of pilgrimage ranking with Walsingham and other famous shrines.[3] The River Chelmer runs next to the church and through Ulting.
Notable residents
Humphrey Spender lived in Ulting for many years before his death in 2005.[4]
