One of the popular ‘Three Fields’ villages, surrounded by farmlands in rural North Essex, historic Wethersfield is just two miles from picture postcard Finchingfield – often described as the quintessential English country village, with its renowned green, duck pond, windmill and three pubs. Wethersfield itself offers an excellent range of amenities including the 13th Century CofE St. Mary Magdalene Church, a licensed village club, well maintained playing fields and playground, new cricket pavilion, hard court tennis facilities, thriving village school, two pre-school nurseries, post office and village shop and a host of activities based at the busy village hall – including a historical society, a wine club, amateur dramatics and fitness classes. There are also organised walks and cycling outings throughout the delightful North Essex and Suffolk countryside. Cambridge, Chelmsford, Colchester and Ipswich, with their city amenities, are all within easy reach while the bustling market towns of Braintree, Dunmow, Halstead, Haverhill, Sudbury and Saffron Walden are all conveniently close as are the attractive villages of Great Bardfield, Thaxted and Castle Hedingham. There is an hourly bus service to Braintree, which has a one-hour fast train service via Witham to London Liverpool Street, and there is also a less frequent bus service to Chelmsford. Train services to Liverpool Street are also available on the Cambridge line from Elsenham or Stansted Airport. Thanks to the A120 there is fast access to the A12, M11 motorway and Stansted Airport, all of which are sited approximately 18 miles west.
