Flatford Mill



Well we managed to get at the weekend and surprisingly enough, in the middle of October I was walking about, outside, in a short sleeved shirt. We took a ride over to Flatford Mill, for those familier with 'Constable' will know that Flatford Mill was the backdrop to some of his paintings.


We explored in and around Flatford Mill and then talk a cross country walk to Manningtree and Mistley. A walk I would recommend. It is approximately 3 - 4 miles there, and probably one of the few places in East Anglia where you can escape everything, including traffic.


Manningtree has some quaint old buildings and is very picturesque, but for some reason attracts people who park up near the estuary and sit in their cars listening to the radio. Most strange.
