Audley End House and Gardens (England)
Tour of Audley End House and Gardens - 26/5/18
Music by Peter Phillips
Audley End House (grid reference TL524381) is a largely early 17th-century country house outside Saffron Walden, Essex, England. It was once a prodigy house, a palace in all but name and renowned as one of the finest Jacobean houses in England. Audley End is now one-third of its original size, but is still large, with much to enjoy in its architectural features and varied collections. It is currently in the stewardship of English Heritage and long remained the family seat of the Lords Braybrooke.

SWC Free Walk 130, Great Chesterford to Newport. 26/2/12
This walk of 11.7 miles features a county not often covered by walking guides - Essex. Starting out from Great Chesterford, on the Cambridgeshire borders, the walker is soon into the countryside and the large fields associated with the county. It's mainly through these, and a few woods, before arriving at Saffron Walden for lunch, and, in this case, Bridge End Garden.
Thereafter, having viewed the impressive St Mary the Virgin church, there's a pleasant walk through the parkland of Audley End before joining The Harcamlow Way for the journey back to Newport.
An easy walk on grassy paths for the most part, but some annoying road walking as well.
(The water shortage is clearly highlighted today, with most brooks and smaller tributaries bone dry! And it's still Winter...).

Saffron Walden Grand Prix 2019
The inaugural Saffron Walden Grand Prix was Monument Cycling's flagship racing event and a legacy to le Tour de France's visit in 2014. One of the newest races on the block and undoubtedly the #BestCritsInTown.
For us, cycling is more than just a sport – it’s a way of life. That's why we spent years working to create an event that made people feel a part of the cycling community.
So, what are you watching? The Saffron Walden Grand Prix was a day of events, starting with a family fun ride in the morning - open to all ages and abilities - and building up to the blisteringly fast elite men's and women's races.
Some of the best cyclists in the country joined us at the Saffron Walden Grand Prix:
- The women’s Elite race was won by Jo Tindley, the National Circuit Series Champion, with National Road Series round winner, Laura Massey, sprinting to second place.
- Then, in the men's Elite race, local Essex lad James Jenkins took the win ahead of his Richardson’s-Trek teammate Isaac Mundy, runner up in this year's National Championships. Alec Briggs, who really needs no introduction, took third.
Not everyone could make it into town for the day, so we thought we'd bring the racing action to you with all the best highlights filmed and produced by Nat Rosa. The man deserves a medal for how hard he worked.
We're going to be making more videos - join the community!

Saffron Walden is a market town in the Uttlesford district of Essex, England. Saffron Walden is 12 miles north of Bishop's Stortford, 18 miles south of Cambridge and 43 miles north of London. The town retains a rural appearance and some buildings dating from the medieval period.
Saffron Walden was at the centre of the Eastern Association during the English Civil War. While the town was the headquarters of the New Model Army, Lieutenant-General of Horse, Oliver Cromwell paid a 19-day visit in May 1647, taking part in debates to seek a settlement between Parliament and the army. Saffron Walden's unofficial coat of arms showed the saffron crocus within the walls of the castle in the form of an heraldic pun – as in, Saffron walled-in. In 1961, a formal coat of arms was granted by the College of Arms and this was adapted in 1974 into its current form.
The 12th-century Walden Castle, built or expanded by Geoffrey de Mandeville, the first Earl of Essex is in ruins. After the medieval period, the castle fell into disuse and much of the flint was taken and used in the construction of local houses and the wall surrounding the Audley End estate. All that remains is the ruined basement.
Near to the castle is a turf maze, a series of circular excavations cut into the turf of the common. It is the largest example of this style of maze in England, the main part is about 100 feet (30 m) in diameter. The earliest record of it dates from 1699, although its origin may be earlier. It has been extensively restored several times, most recently in 1979.
Saffron Walden is served by Audley End railway station, which is located 2 miles (3 km) outside the town in the village of Wendens Ambo, with regular bus services to the town centre. The station is on the West Anglia mainline service between Cambridge and London Liverpool Street Station, with an off-peak service of two trains an hour, southbound and northbound, and more services during peak times. Saffron Walden is accessed from junction 8 of the M11 travelling from London (a distance of about 15 miles (24 km)) and from junction 10 travelling from the Cambridge direction (8 miles (13 km)). Stansted Airport is some 15 miles (24 km) from the town, while Luton Airport is 43 miles (69 km) away.
