HEMPSTEAD WINS AGAIN Hempstead has won the Best Churchyard in Essex prize for St. Andrews AND we have won the Ruggles Brise Trophy for our village size again. Click here for details.
|
Hempstead is a small historic village situated seven miles east of Saffron Walden in the north-west corner of Essex. The notorious highwayman Dick Turpin was born in the village public house. William Harvey, the man who discovered the circulation of blood in the human body, and Sir Eliab Harvey, commander of the Temeraire at the battle of Trafalgar, are interred with many members of their family in the Church crypt.

ASTRONOMY CLUB Did that catch your eye - well the village website provides the opportunity for an on-line Club such as Astronomy or other topics where actual regular meetings or booking the Hall may be impractical. Is there something you would like to create or run? Would some of our youngsters like to start an online Club? Please contact me if you have an idea. Diana Frost
