Duddenhoe End


Duddenhoe End is a small settlement linked to Elmdon, but it has a remarkable amount of history of its own. Anyone wanting to know about the history of this charming little hamlet is strongly recommended to read the three volumes by Olive Harvey. They are packed with illustrations and oral history, and well written. The first volume, published last year, is already out of print but can be seen in Saffron Walden Town Library - if sufficient interest is shown, the author is willing to reprint.

The other two volumes were launched in 2008 - the photo above shows the author, Olive Harvey, at the book launch in Duddenhoe End village hall.
