A large town in the Uttlesford district of Essex. Possibly one of the nicest towns in Essex, however you do get one or two chavs in some parts of the town.
Saffron Walden has a mixture of people, many of whom are old, others are younger, especially the super hot girls who always go to Weatherspoons. It is also near Cambridge, so the people are respectable. It is a wonderful little town

It has a number of places to visit:

Audley End House - A famous English Heritage property that is often on the front cover of their handbook. Recommended fr the under 8s and 50+

The Common - A field of grass with an ancient maze on it. There is also a play area. At Bonfire Night, a quite large fireworks display is held there.

Bridge End Gardens - A garden with a bridge. Admittedly, it could be a number of bridges, but I would opt for the one on Bridge Street (however the river does then go into a culvert, so only one side is a bridge really).

The Museum - A collection of old stuff

The Church - It's big
