Isobel walks along The Walls by the estuary
A Postcard from Manningtree, Essex - 9th January 2024
We're off to Holbrook near Alton Water to get Harry's saxophone fixed, so as we're in the area we decide to visit Manningtree. Manningtree is one of the stations on the main line between Diss and London, so has been transited perhaps 1,600 times during the ten years commuting by train to London, however it's the first time actually visiting it properly.

A derelict sign for a tea rooms in Mistley
Mistley Towers - the remains of a Georgian church
A shelter on the estuary shores
A London train heads into Manningtree station
Some geese take flight over the estuary
Looking out across the shoreline to the Stour
Isobel stumps about in the littoral zone
Nice Georgian buildings on High Street
On old shop sign: Townsends
Another traditional sign for Bates upholstery
The Lane, just off the High Street
There are a lot of funeral directors around
A nice little traditional hardware shop
A K6 phonebox outside the town hall
The Manningtree Ox notes a Shakespear connection
We're in Hobson's café
The very wonky Mogul Indian restaurant
Manningtree station
