Lavenham – Stepping back in time with crooked houses, cream teas

The Guild Hall, now a museum in Lavenham, Suffolk, is a big part of the town's history, which dates back to the times of William the Conqueror and the Norman Conquest in 1066. In 1257, Lavenham received its first Market Charter, and less than a century later, records show the town had already become a cloth-making centre of England. It was during this time the town became involved in the wool trade. Today, Lavenham is famous for its half-timbered, crooked houses. (U.S. Air Force photo by Karen Abeyasekere/Released)
