Braintree is one of the larger towns in the North of Essex and has an attractive town centre.  Many of Braintree’s attractive historical buildings are a result of the wealth of the wool trade which benefited the town way back in the 14th century. There are several museums located in the region of Braintree that give a brief account of history of the town.

Away from the attractive town centre, one of the biggest attractions of Braintree has to be Freeport shopping village on the outskirts of the town.  Many keen shoppers head for Freeport for bargains galore.  There are various outlets here where you can search for good deals and you may well get the best possible price on your item of choice here.
