An amazing place, not too much to see, brilliant view from the top, have a guided tour to understand why it was here and what it was like back in the day.

Stebbing is a small, historic village dating from at least the 11th century. A medieval motte & bailey castle stood to the east of the village on what is now called 'The Mount: The church is a grade I listed building and boasts one of only three stone rood screens in Europe. There are many timber buildings throughout the village including Prior's Hall, a grand 16th century house.

Pretty Essex village centred around the village pond. A lovely spot to stop for a breather or refreshment.

You can’t see the priory buildings from the road but the lanes leading too it are pretty nice!

Quaint village, site of a former royal castle, now just the earthworks left (sadly mostly obscured from view and on private property).

An Augustinian Priory until dissolution in 1556 - much of the original buildings still remain. Well worth a stop and walk around the grounds.

Pleshey Castle was completed around the turn of the 12th century and was a motte and bailey. These days, nothing much survives, apart from the earthworks, sections of mote, and a 14th-century brick-built bridge. You still get a good sense of the fortification, though.
