About Colchester
Historic Colchester is proud of its ancient Roman history and is now home to a population of over 200,000 and the British Army’s 16 Air Assault Brigade. It has a high employment rate, a thriving local economy, a great shopping scene and vibrant nightlife, and is just 42 minutes by train from London.
Colchester, situated in Essex, has some fantastic transport links, which add to its appeal. The A12 connects the town to London, and direct trains run from Colchester to London Liverpool Street. The town is only a short drive to the beaches and sailing at Mersea Island, and an hour’s drive from the beautiful Suffolk towns of Aldeburgh and Southwold.
In 2022, Colchester was given City status to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations. The Platinum Jubilee civic honours required applicants to demonstrate their royal associations and cultural heritage. Plus, their local identity and communities meant they deserved to be granted city status.
