    Very nice video but the best medieval market town - in Essex, in England? If the latter surely somewhere like Ludlow is more spectacular. I know you wanted to concentrate on the medieval aspects but I love the Victorian houses, the water tower and the church. My favourite street is Gold Street with its wonderful examples of pargetting.

    Hi LW 👋 !! Thanks for this lovely peaceful walk in Saffron Walden, so much variety to see along the way. The formal park was spectacular. The remains of the castle with the cores of the medieval walls is quite something too !! I notice good bird song throughout 🎼🐦👍 - I just uploaded a wee video with the bird song recorded on location. I was surprised to immediately get a “Copyright Claim” on the sound 😢 !! Cheers, Don 🙋

    • @LivingWalks
      @LivingWalks  2 роки тому

      Morning Don, a pleasure to hear from you. Yes we found it an interesting and varied place, only an hour away from us in Leigh on sea but oddly we've only ever been there once before. Oh how curious a “Copyright Claim” on birdsong!! That's a bit surreal. I hope YT rectifies that. All the best to you.

    When I was a child in the 1950's I spent all my school holidays with my grandparents who lived in Thaxted Road, Saffron Walden. These days it breaks my heart to visit the town, so much that I once loved has been utterly destroyed by totally inappropriate overdevelopment.

    With all the fearmongering, worries, bustle in the big arrogant cities, places like this are a haven for the soul.
    My advice (as we are planning on doing), leave the cities and find a nice little town somewhere that you can commute from if need be.
    Cities are only good for nights out and work...They are no good for peace of mind.
