Fiddlers Hamlet takes its name from the Merry Fiddlers Inn, and has been a settlement since at least the 17th century. It was previously in the parish of Theydon Garnon. Fiddlers Hamlet was part of the Epping Union, poor relief provision set up under the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834. In the 19th century the hamlet was seen as within the identifiable Coopersale northern district of Theydon Garnon parish, which itself had become a separate ecclesiastical parish in 1852 as part of the rural deanery of Chigwell. In 1891 the northwestern parts of Theydon Garnon parish including Fiddlers Hamlet, Coopersale Street, and Coopersale were alienated to become part of Epping Urban District (from 1974 Epping Forest District).[1][2]

The local school is Coopersale and Theydon Garnon Church of England Primary School in Coopersale. The previous school at Fiddlers Hamlet was that for Theydon Garnon parish; the old school house still exists. The Merry Fiddlers public house is at the centre of the hamlet, and is listed as the Merry Fiddlers in 19th- and early 20th-century trade directories, and as being the location of the hamlet post box. In the late 19th century, letters to the hamlet were delivered from Epping by foot.[1][2]
