The Queen in the Crown of Essex Tour
Thaxted is a joy to explore!
A perfect blend of medieval and Georgian architecture. Its beauty is matched by it’s history, it has everything!
This interesting tour focuses on the land, surrounding Manningtree, where The Witch Hunts occurred.
We also discover those few individuals, who were brave enough to oppose the Witch Hunts, in their day, and hear of the myths and legends that arose!
This is a Walking Tour of Manningtree, and it’s surrounding land, and we walk along part of ‘The Essex Way!’
On this tour we journey back in time to the 17th century Essex Witch Hunts!
This off the beaten track walk, is atmospheric, and gives you a real feel for Manningtree, and it’s surrounding land, it must have been much wilder, almost 500 years ago!
The walk takes us past haunted ponds, and magical ancient trees, and into the woods! We also walk along part of The Stour Estuary, and see the lapping waters ripple, and small boats bobbing, and birds calling!
In such places, the numerous myths, and legends of the Essex Witch Hunts arose, and we hear the tales!
