Successful book signing on 3rd December 2024 by Martin Rose.

A recently published new biography of Henry Winstanley, the Saffron Walden engineer, engraver, lighthouse-builder and theatrical entrepreneur was launched on 3rd December 2024 at the Old Sun Inn, Church Street, Saffron Walden . As Douglas Kent (owner of the Sun Inn) said, the Winstanley family were known to have associations with the Inn from the 17th century . He suggested that it was quite likely that Henry would be sitting by the fireplace, which has changed little over the years. See below:
