The A120 connects Great Dunmow with Bishop’s Stortford and the M11 (and thus London) in one direction and Braintree and Colchester in the other. It’s the most important road in the immediate area and was recently turned into a dual carriageway and bypassed around Dunmow. Walking down the Flitch Way
Today was Dunmow Carnival day and the town was awash with bunting. The procession was lengthened quite considerably this year and there was certainly less numbers out on the streets outside our house this year – we assume because more people could watch it from the comfort of their own
A picture from much earlier this year of the old runway at Little Easton. I’m assuming this is the remains of the runway used during the second world war by the USA Air Force 386th Bombardment Group known as “The Crusaders”
