What is recorded here
River Colne in Castle Hedingham is a castle, fort or tower in Braintree, England. Perhaps water flowed through the castle halls before stone walls closed the valley. Maybe the colne cut a channel through Hedingham and the river took the shape of the town. Imagine men living above the water line while the river carried their shadows downstream.
