Quaker Meeting House
Heritage Open Day: An opportunity to visit the meeting house of the Colchester Quakers who have been active in the area for centuries. This brick building dates to 1802-3 and was originally known as St Mary's House. It was the home of William Mason (1768-1840), a solicitor and member of one of Colchester's most influential families. Between 1802 and 1813, William Mason served as Colchester's Town Clerk and later became an alderman. The Masons were related by marriage to the painter John Constable (1776-1837), who was a frequent visitor to their home when he was sketching in the local area. This building stayed in the Mason family until 1919 when it became a doctor's surgery.
