About the Town

Great Dunmow is an attractive market town situated in the heart of rural Essex. Today, the town has nearly 9000 inhabitants and is popular with commuters, due to its mix of rural charm and good transport links to London. The town has easy access to the nearby towns of Saffron Walden, Thaxted, Braintree, Bishops Stortford and Chelmsford and is conveniently located just off the A120, Stansted Airport and the M11. Once a Roman settlement, Dunmow’s main trade was wool which helped it to grow to an important market centre. Today the town is a traditional market town with historic buildings and shopping in the High Street offering a diverse assortment of independent shops, some old and some new, including butchers and greengrocers, boutiques and an array of restaurants. Many buildings survive from this period, including a sixteenth century town hall. Today the town is a traditional market town with shopping in the High Street. The Flitch Way, a country park along the route of the old Braintree to Bishop's Stortford railway, links the old and new villages of Little Dunmow. The town is famous for its’ custom, the Dunmow Flitch Trials, which are held each leap year when a flitch of bacon is awarded to participating couples who can prove to the judge and jury of 12 local maidens and bachelors that they have not quarrelled for a year and a day. This ancient custom, first held in Little Dunmow, was revived in 1855 in Great Dunmow. Many people visit the town during the trials to attend the ceremonies and share in the traditional celebrations
