  • PUB GUIDE Produced by the Colchester and North East Essex Branch of the Campaign for Real Ale
    COLCHESTER & N.E. ESSEX REAL ALE PUB GUIDE Produced by the Colchester and North East Essex branch of the Campaign for Real Ale COLCHESTER & N.E. ESSEX REAL ALE PUB GUIDE Welcome to the Colchester and N. E. Essex CAMRA branch area. As the name suggests, the town of Colchester sits proudly at the centre of our branch area. It is not only Britain’s oldest recorded town, but the Roman influence is still very evident today with the Roman wall being the most visible feature. Perhaps of more relevance to the beer drinker is that evidence suggests the Romans were involved in brewing in Colchester, which leads us nicely to the purpose of this guide. This is an updated version of our guide to our splendid public houses that serve real ale. We’ve combined our town and country guides into a single guide and completely resurveyed all the pubs to bring it right up to date. There are also some handy maps to point you in the right direction and we’ve added bus route numbers to help you get to those pubs that are out of town. We’ve only been able to give a brief description of each pub, but if you are interested in the history of our Colchester Pubs please visit the excellent and informative www.camulos.com/inns/1intro.htm The information in this guide was correct at the time we surveyed the pubs, but we know this can change. If you wish to visit a particular pub you can always ring them beforehand to double check.

If your walk happens to be just before a scheduled clearance, best you have a walking pole at the ready to beat back the undergrowth. On the final approach into the historic town of Sudbury, you cross the Sudbury Common Lands, a traditional pastoral landscape which has the longest recorded history of continuous grazing in East Anglia, where the painter Thomas Gainsborough is said to have played as a child, to tea in a converted millhouse on the banks of the river. Walk If you are not having lunch at the suggested pub on the walk's original route, Options you can avoid the detour to Bulmer Tye by carrying on northwards up the road at point [5] to rejoin the route in 200 metres, at the asterisk [*] below.
