Doctor's Pond, Dunmow
It is thought that the pond acquired its name from two local Doctors in the 18th Century who used the pond to breed leeches. The pond's other claim to fame is that Lionel Lukin (1742-1834), who it is claimed invented the lifeboat, made his first non-sinkable boat model in the pond.

Former town lock-up, North Street, Great Dunmow
In days before the County Police Act of 1839 - which brought in local police stations - lock-ups served as places of short-term imprisonment, typically for holding drunks overnight. This one is certainly a very small building, but I have seen smaller - including one scarcely bigger than a pillar box in the Lincolnshire village of Digby: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3628413
Humble as it is, this lock-up's little shuttered windows are Gothick in form - a feature which was fashionable from about 1780 until early Victorian times.
