More about this scene

This was the main London-Colchester road. Stage-coaches used to change horses at The Plough (right). The pub is the one feature of this scene to stay relatively unchanged. The smithy, opposite, has given way to a garage; and the row of cottages (with a sign saying 'Cyclist's Rest') are long-since demolished.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

By the 1900's the Benton family owned the Post Office, a cycle shop and were the local Blacksmiths. Would like some information on whether the Plough and the surrounding area is still there.
