July 17, 2025, Lakes Near Little Easton Church

These ponds were part of the formal gardens of Little Easton Manor. They are still part of the estate, currently used as fishing lakes. The pond at the road is called Horse Pond with the larger pond to the north called Great Pond.

Little antique shop that does coffee and limited cakes. Seats outside but no toilets. Thaxted is limited to here or across road at Dorringtons for coffee. Dorringtons has wider choice as its a bakers but no seats. However there is a bench near the post office.

Not the most exciting walk unless solar farms are your thing. Otherwise, wouldn't bother.

Beautiful high street with half timbered buildings and guildhall. Parrishes, half way up, is a decent cafe for refreshments.

The approach is along a cinder track from Thaxted high street. Go through the field gate at the top and down the path about 20m to get a close up view of the windmill.

You'll spot the spire from a long way away as you approach Thaxted.
