Haverhill
A drive from Abington, Sun, 23 Aug 2020 by David Howard
Starting from the A505 I wound through the country roads through to Saffron Walden and then headed through many small villages to Haverhill and back to Abington heading west. As usual there were few people around the area, it's not somewhere that gets many tourists and means it's easy to get around and also park in the towns.
