sps1955's photos

On SORN when photographed, according to DVLA, where it is listed as 3430cc.

The E. entrance gates: ironwork of 1713-15 between piers of 1675, with the E. front of the College (1638-40) beyond. List description for gates: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1125550 ; RCHM: www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=128388 .

The W. frontispiece of the E. range (1638-40) catches the last of the afternoon sun. The clock is an insertion, probably made in the C18. List description: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1320280 ; RCHM: www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=128388 .

Looking E from the bridge, which dates from 1639-40 and was built (and presumably designed) by Thomas Grumbold: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1125549 . The W. front of the College has a complex building history; foundations were laid in 1640 but the right-hand section was begun in earnest in 1669; the left-hand section was carried on using the same design in 1705-15, when the frontispiece was also built using a more classical design than had originally been intended. The original cross-framed windows have been replaced by sashes and the sills of the ground and first-floor windows were lowered in 1815.

List description for bridge: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1125549 ; for gateway: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1125551 ; RCHM: www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=128388 .

The W. gates to Queen's Road, piers of 1691 with ironwork of 1713-15. List description: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1332170 ; RCHM: www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=128388 .

Lion Yard on the left; the building in the right foreground was formerly the studio of Ramsey and Muspratt, photographers, I believe (cf. www.early-photographers.org.uk/Studio%20-%20Post%20Office... ).

Looking roughly N. The Grand Arcade is on the left; the Lion Yard is in front; the 1960s telephone exchange on the right.

The W. (entrance) front from the NW. Almshouses established by the Earl of Suffolk (owner of Audley End House and James I's Lord Chamberlain from 1603-14, before serving as Lord Treasurer until his dismissal in 1618); built 1605-14 on the site of a medieval building, probably the hospital of Walden Abbey. List description: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1196246 . Visited on a Heritage Open Day. 1907 view: www.francisfrith.com/audley-end/photos/abbey-farm-almshouses-1907_58831 . And a view from the SW in a book published in 1909: www.flickr.com/photos/internetarchivebookimages/14773802882

The N. courtyard seen from the NE - the archway on the right corresponds to the one on the left of the view of the W. front; the range on the left contained the hall. Almshouses established by the Earl of Suffolk (owner of Audley End House and James I's Lord Chamberlain from 1603-14, before serving as Lord Treasurer until his dismissal in 1618); built 1605-14 on the site of a medieval building, probably the hospital of Walden Abbey. Listed description: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1196246 . Visited on a Heritage Open Day. 1907 view shows that the dormer windows are the result of recent restoration, as is the doorway on the far left, it seems: www.francisfrith.com/audley-end/photos/the-abbey-court-ya... .

From S. I have done a little perspective correction on this image and I think that I have got it right, although it is difficult to be sure as the building leans to the right! It is the south cross wing of a late C16 house, probably built in c.1583 for Thomas Sutton, Master of the Ordnance to Queen Elizabeth I.
