More from New Town


Many properties in the New Town area don't quite fit into the normal categories of commoditized estate agent living (two-bedroom terrace, three-bedroom semi, four-bedroom period house in smart location, etc, etc). I have no idea what the pictured house (built mid 1800s?), hidden away in New Town, is or was, but I'm sure there is much of local interest here. And it's another special building that adds value to an important part of Colchester. A neighbourhood needs only to lose a few buildings such as this to tip the balance from being fascinating to ordinary. See more New Town pics here. For location of New Town, see map, waypoint 15.
