The Old Sun Inn, Saffron Walden, Essex, England, Great Britain
Saffron Walden, Essex.

The apparent conglomeration of white buildings opposite was in fact the Old Sun Inn. Dating from the 14th century the Old Sun Inn, sadly, no longer exists as such having been divided into a number of seperate buildings. There is, however, still some fine pargetting to be seen.

It stands where Museum Street and Market Hill both meet Church Street.

A Medieval Hall House, Saffron Walden, Essex, England, Great Britain
Saffron Walden, Essex.

At the start of The Rows on the corner of King Street and Cross Street stands this large 15th century Hall House which has since been divided into three separate buildings.

The Rows were the medieval town's original shopping centre. The individual shops probaly started as market stalls and developed into something more substantial later.
