Earls Colne, Essex Greeting Card

Coming soon! Pre-order now for delivery in early October.

Original greeting card of Earls Colne, a village in the Braintree district of Essex. Earls Colne is the largest of a number of villages in the area to take its name from the River Colne (and by extension, the Colne Valley) - along with White Colne, Wakes Colne, and Colne Engaine. The other half of Earls Colne's name comes from the Earls of - surprisingly - Oxford, who had possession of the Essex village for many centuries. Earls Colne is also known for nearby Earls Colne airfield, which was used during the Second World War.

Depicted in this illustration is a view down Earls Colne high street towards the St Andrew's Church, which was built in the 1300s. Also shown is Earls Colne War Memorial, commemorating the people of the parish who gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars.
