Day 32: Little Waltham

Little and Great Waltham date back to the Domesday book. They're around five miles to the north of Chelmsford but in a very rural (for Essex) setting, straddling the river Chelmer.








I parked up in Little Waltham and walked through the village and towards Great Waltham, and up to Langley's, a Georgian house surrounded by a deer park with public rights of way.





And a particularly passive aggressive sign about dog poo!


I've walked around Great Waltham before but this time I didn't walk up to Suzi Quatro's old house, or the model village designed in the late 1960s. Both are very interesting in their own way.


Lunch in the pub wasn't too bad. Honest.


This sign made me laugh! It was on a fence on the primary school, where some building work was taking place. I just wish the dicks that spent 9 months building an extension on my next door neighbour's house had a sign like this.
