A cluster of towns, old and new. Some beautiful places and some that are more functional than lovely.

Map locator - Chelmesford

I recall, many years ago, some lovely walks down the river Stort from its navigable head at Bishop's Stortford through Sawbridgeworth with some old clapper-board mills to Harlow - where there's both the ancient and modern. These days, the modern in Harlow dominates - I traveled there a few weeks ago to present a Perl and MysQL course, but alas didn't have the opportunity to get out with my camera - my thanks to Caitlinn Davison (see Photocredits) for these spectacular sunsets.

Out of London beyond Chemlesford you'll fine Colchester
