Colchester Country Park sounds good Butttttttt! What a tip this goes right to the top of our don’t ever come here again list. In fact we will be losing money AGAIN as we will leave in the morning and have added some days on to our next stop at Sandringham.
Managed a cycle into town and had a walkabout and coffee, the town itself looks interesting and if the weather is OK we will Cycle in tomorrow morning before we leave. Getting across the main road was so difficult we wondered if we would get back to the site before morning ####.
We came across a lovely water tower from the late 1800’s and on reading about it saw that the local vicar was opposed to its build because it would over shadow the rectory Ugh! Me before the town water supply?
