I remember fragments about living at Hutton - I lived in Lilian Crescent, in a new bungalow, having moved from Hawskmoor Green. I learnt to ride a Fairy cycle - as little 2 wheelers were called then - by pushing myself along with the aid of a low brick wall.
I remember my first day at school, saying prayers, and how... [more]

Essex memories
Children's Home in Shenfield - around 1965 - 1969
I wish to communicate with anyone who may remember a children's home that used to be located on a large field in Shenfield.
The individual wood and brick 2 floored (Swiss styled I think) homes were dotted around the perimeter and of different names. One I know was called 'Thames.'
Children from the London Borough of Hackney were... [more]

I was at school in the 1940s. I remember a teacher there, I believe he was a Mr Davis. I remember the annual sports, these were held on a field just a short walk from the school. The days of the great snow fall in 1947, living at Padhams Green it was a mile walk down to the village and the... [more]

My Great Grandfather, George Collyer, farmed at Bariff's Farm, Mountnessing in the 1870's and early 1880's. He farmed 40 acres with his son Richard and a boy. Does anyone know the location of Bariff's Farm?

My sister, Joan, lives at No.52, and several years ago she gave me a copy of a book prepared and published by one of her (recently deceased) neighbours. This man, with friends and acquaintances all suffering from the postwar housing shortage, formed an informal group committed to developing a new neighbourhood for themselves and their families. As masters of their own... [more]

We lived in the Parade, down by the station. The fish and chip shop was run by a rather large gentleman. eventually something happened, and we took it over. The soldiers would pack it out and there would be a long queue outside on Friday nights, and anyone seeing that would think we were making money hand over fist, but in... [more]

I have recently been doing some research into our family history. I was always told by my mother that her elder sister, Bessie Dubora, died from complications following a tonsilectomy but, having now obtained a copy of the Death Certificate, I have discovered that she died at High Wood Hospital in 1925 from TB at the age of 12 years.

Just before Christmas in 1953 I was admitted to St Giles' Hospital in Camberwell, south London. It was thought that I had TB. I was allowed home for Christmas, although confined to bed.
After Christmas I was taken by ambulance to Highwood Hospital in Brentwood, which my parents told me was a 'convalescent home'. One of the boys on my Ward... [more]

Basildon Living Memories Pocket Album
Formerly Bennitts Hill, One Tree Hill was named after the large ash that stood here until the First World War (when it blew down in a gale). It had once proved a useful landmark for shipping on the Thames. In 1926, a mineral well was discovered in Martinhole Wood, just below the hill.

Crown Hill was the setting for an unusual wager in 1936: a Grays confectioner was bet that he could not cycle backwards up the 1-in-7 road. He did it—twice—even though his challenger failed to show up. The Crown is a 200-year-old pub that once hosted 'smoking concerts'. The plasterwork crown above the entrance is dated 1874.

One Tree Hill and Westley Heights were together designated Langdon Hills Country Park in 1973. The County Council had been buying parcels of land in this area since the 1930s, in an attempt to preserve the native trees. Whitebeam, Turkey oak, beech, poplar, sycamore and alder abound here.
