Town Summary - In the heart of rural Essex, Thaxted is a jewel waiting to be discovered. Dating back to Saxon times, the town is full of historic buildings, perhaps epitomised by the stunning Guildhall at its heart. Overlooking the town is the splendid John Webb's windmill, views of which make a wonderful introduction to the beautiful countryside surrounding the town. The centre is dominated by St John the Baptist with Our Lady and St Laurence Church where in the early 20th century the well known composer, Gustav Holst, was the church organist and played the famous Lincoln organ, which is still in the church today. Thaxted attracts visitors as much for its status as a community with a unique character as its historical architectural features, with a number of side streets to explore rich with medieval buildings. Individual shops including Butchery, Bakers, Post Office and imaginative gift shop are found around the town. Town Street is home to a small market on select days. Parrishes Caf� and Bistro is an ideal stop for a mid-morning coffee or light lunch, while The Maypole, The Star pub and The Swan Hotel offer delightful menus for lunch and evening dining.
For those of an active disposition, Thaxted is home to the Thaxted Rangers FC, Bowling Club and Tennis Club. Golfers can enjoy a round at Bishop's Stortford Golf Club or Golf World, which also offers additional facilities of a gym, fitness classes and beauty treatments. Geographically the town is positioned in a desirable location with good access to major road links; the A120, A10, A12 and M11. International flights can be taken from Stansted Airport, around 7.4 miles away. The towns of Bishop's Stortford and Saffron Walden are both in close proximity of Thaxted and both provide extensive shopping opportunities and a multitude of restaurants and pubs. The nearest train station is in Elsenham, which has a direct link into both London Liverpool Street (56 minutes) and Cambridge (30 minutes). The town of Thaxted has both a pre-school and primary school. There is an independent boarding and day school in Felsted which supplies a first class education for ages from 4-18 and Saffron Walden County High School, rated Outstanding in its last Ofsted report, has many opportunities for children of varying ability.
