Roding Valley Meadows form one of the largest continuous areas of species-rich grassland in Essex, comprising traditionally managed hay meadows, flood meadows and marsh.  The reserve attracts a large number of visitors who use the reserve for walking, general outdoor recreation and to enjoy the wildlife.
