Excerpt from The History of Audley End: To Which Are Appended Notices of the Town and Parish of Saffron Walden in the County of EssexA few observations upon the arrangement of the following pages may be necessary, though no uniform plan in this respect is prescribed to topographers. The reader, then, should bear in mind, that the History of Audley End was originally my only object, some of the sheets having been printed off before I had contemplated extending the work to the remainder of the parish of Walden, and even at a later period it was supposed that a few supplementary notices would be sufficient for the purpose. But the church requiring a very minute description, and much new matter being obtained, the parochial details were found to occupy nearly as much space as the preceding portion of the book. To alter the plan, however, seemed impossible, without entirely remodelling every chapter, and such an attempt would pro bably have led to the abandonment of the undertaking I determined therefore not to disturb the form at first adopted, but to avoid repe tition as much as possible, and to enable the reader, by means of a Copious index, to refer without trouble to such matters as have been necessarily treated of in more than one place.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
