The House Detectives Trail
The
main road through Earls Colne has shops and houses in a variety of styles
but, at first glance, few of them appear to be very ancient. However
as the BBC documentary series House and Home' explained to its viewers
In Earls Colne things are seldom what they
seem" Behind later facades of brick or plaster, many buildings
conceal medieval timber frames.
This is a guide
to a walk [New Window] around the village which will enable you
to see some of Earls Colne's History, we
hope this suggested trail will help you spot the clues which tell us
a building's true age.
