Saffron Walden — Market Town

Highlight • Settlement

Lovely old market town. It’s wealth created from growing saffron from crocus during the medieval period. A fantastic selection of cafes including a bike shop that does excellent coffee.

This cafe has now changed management and is called Waffle and Coffee. Still has bike racks and outside seating although I did not see the bike locks last time I was there. Staff still great and the food is even better. Bacon and egg sandwich is very good. Coffee, Tea and cakes and of course waffles. Good clean toilets so well worth visiting as a rest stop.

Audley End House

Highlight • Historical Site

House and gardens are only for entry (about £ 20) to visit. Part of the park is freely accessible from the village.

Sawston–Whittlesford Cycleway

Highlight • Cycleway

Scenic off road route crossing the River Cam to provide a shorter direct connection between Sawston & Whittlesford. The short section of path from Whittlesford Church to the village is quite broken and rough but it’s smooth new tarmac across the meadows between the church and the river.

Highway Signage Humour

Highlight • Structure

Someone in the Cambs highways department clearly has a sense of humour. 😂 One of the best sign combinations I’ve seen.
