==History==
The discovery of a hoard of denarii dated to 41 CE is some evidence of occupation in Roman times. However, the village first appears in written records as "Wudeham" in c. 975. The name, which means "village in the wood", is derived from the old English words "wudu" (wood in modern English) and "ham" (home, or homestead). At the time of the Norman Conquest the parish belonged to Ralph Peverell and was known as Little Woodham. Henry II gave the parish to Robert de Mortimer, leading to the change in name.
In the Domesday Book the population was recorded as 14 households with the local lord in 1066 being Siward Barn.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Woodham Mortimer )〕
During the First World War a new aerodrome was opened in nearby Stow Maries to provide air cover for the London area. 37 Squadron, Royal Flying Corps occupied the base from September 1916 taking over The Grange in Woodham Mortimer as its headquarters.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=2012-10-23 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=37 Squadron RFC )〕 The Grange was once the property of Beeleigh Abbey and is a Grade II listed building.
