Paul Roach Jaguar is the only independent specialist I know of nearby. He's close to Sudbury just over the Essex Badlands border with Suffolk.

Les Paul in east London and Wyn Thomas in Epping are other Jaguar indys with workshops and there's a Jaguar Approved service centre called Taylors in Dunmow too.

I don't think Paul Roach exist as such. I seem to remember they closed and re-opened under a slightly different name (and maybe with different management/owners). Regardless, here's a link:

You could also give Kevin a ring at Jagutek. They're in Ely (Cambridgeshire) so a bit further away for you but they are very knowledgeable (especially with the 'newer' Jaguar's):
