Location

Braintree was issued a Market Charter by King John in 1199, and ever since then market days have become a focal point of the town. They occur twice weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays in the pleasantly pedestrianized (and recently refurbished) Market Place. Braintree retains a good collection of historic buildings, including the listed timber-framed properties in the conservation area in the town centre. For commuters the town has a direct connection to London Liverpool Street, taking around one hour and is approx. 12 miles to Stansted Airport and the M11. Close by there are plenty of opportunities for walks and riding and of particular note is the nearby Great Notley Country Park which covers some 100 acres of open space. A variety of activities and events are held throughout the year. Families can picnic or fly kites or, for the more energetic, there is an all-weather, multi-activity, floodlit pitch and two grass football pitches. There's also an excellent visitor centre, housed in the award-winning Discovery Centre. The region boasts a significant number of secondary and primary schools as well as colleges and nurseries. There are well-renowned private schools within easy reach and some of the country’s leading grammar schools in Colchester and Chelmsford.
