Saffron Walden / Little Walden area
Saffron Walden is a quintessential English market town in North West Essex. It has medieval roots and is part of a designated conservation area with examples of architecture from the 12th Century including many timber framed houses and relief plastering in evidence. Nearby is Audley End, an extravagant Jacobean property now run by English Heritage. Market days are Tuesday and Thursday, although the saffron production from which the town gets it's name is now longer in evidence.
