About the host
Hosted by Host
The tiny village in Essex was the site that inspired Ian Fleming's James Bond books. Birdbrook is a picturesque little village in north Essex, within the district of Braintree, that is said to have inspired the hugely successful novelist's spy books. The name given to this parish is supposed o have been derived from the brook which passes over part of it. Birdbrook is surrounded by the villages of Ahen, Ridgwell, Stambourne, and the more well-known Steeple Bumpstead.
Moyns Park, a Grade I listed Elizabethan country house is in the village, is said to have been when Ian Fleming took inspiration and put the finishing touches to his fifth James Bond noval From Russia with Love.
