Over several decades, and prior to any expansion of Stansted Airport, archaeology has revealed a surprising amount of habitation from the Iron Age forwards. Richard Havis gave an interesting talk to many members of the High Country History Group at its October meeting.
Welcome to the blog of the High Country History Group covering the parishes of Greensted, Stanford Rivers, Stapleford Tawney and Theydon Mount in Essex, England. We meet most fourth Thursdays in the month at Toot Hill Village Hall from 8.00pm.
