Takeley have moved to strengthen their squad by signing Chris Bullock on loan from Ryman League side Aveley.
The forward made an impressive start to life at Station Road, scoring the equaliser in Saturday's draw with Manford Way.
Manager Don Watters feels the youngster will be a valuable asset to the club.
"I picked him up playing Sunday football and he played for me and Sawbridgeworth," said Watters.
"He showed good prospects and when I left he went with Rod Stringer to Barking and then with him to Aveley.
"He got a bad injury and then couldn't get back into the side so I told Rod I'd take him.
