The development, originally named Oakwood Park, is located next to the Flitch Way, a public right of way between Bishop's Stortford and Braintree where the old railway line used to be. Building of Flitch Green began in 2001. The population (in December 2008) was 1,200, increasing to 2,190 at the 2011 Census. There is a community hall, a small children's playground and a Co-op at present. A sports pavilion and Multi Use Games area are due to open in summer 2016 and a playground and large playing fields should be ready by October 2016.
Flitch Green was granted parish status in November 2008 in an order made by the district council; the order became effective on 1 April 2009. It had previously been in the parish of Little Dunmow.
Flitch Green Primary School, which serves the estate, was opened in September 2008. The primary school converted to The Flitch Green Academy in 2011.
