Thaxted

Guía de viaje

Lovely walk on local public pathway with fantastic views of Windmill known variously as John Webb's Mill or Lowe's Mill. Thaxted Windmill is a grade II listed tower mill on the edge of the historic hilltop town of Thaxted, about 6 miles south east of Saffron Walden. The mill stands 48 feet high, and is made of red brick, with four wooden sails. The mill was erected in 1804 on land owned by John Webb, a successful businessman who owned a number of properties locally, including a brick and tile work, and the local Swan Inn. There were 4 other mills in Thaxted at the time, but these were traditional post mills, whereas Webb's Mill was built to a tower design (a post mill rotates the entire body of the structure around a central column, while a tower mill rotates a moveable cap to which the sails are attatched). The family of millers who worked the mill were the Lowe family, and so the building is sometimes referred to as Lowe's Mill. Interestingly, one of the recent leaders of the John Webb’s Windmill Trust that runs the mill is a direct descendent of the Lowe family. The building material was local brick, fired just half a mile away, and there were 3 sets of millstones. The mill was in operation for just over a century, but by 1907 it was uneconomic to keep open. The advent of efficient steam engines made wind power less appealling and more costly. #red #windmill #sunset #uk #britain #england
Find a new advent window display in Thaxted every day during December, up to the 24th of December. Inspired by the hugely popular event in Saltaire, 2017 is the first for Thaxted. A new window is lit at 5pm on their given day and remain lit every evening until at least Christmas. There are some charming, beautiful and wonderful windows to be seen. #red #longexposure #lighttrails #christmasishere #festive #advent #christmas #uk #britain #england

9,2/10 Wonderful! (288 opiniones)
Horrible
Mucho ruido, habitaciones sin aislamiento acústico se escucha el respirar de la habitación de al lado, ni te cuento si tienes la oficina de limpieza o almacenaje de toallas o el ascensor al lado, vulnera el primer principio de un hotel, descanso, el poder dormir plácidamente.

It was lovely to stay at a college. I studied at a different college a long time ago and this one is quite tucked away, in my day we called it Sidney Sainsbury's as it's opposite the supermarket!
