Circa 1952
A Memory of South Ockendon.
Lydia Hall There were some lovely buildings that have been lost to demolition , the elegant Georgian Pear Tree House that was the Doctors home...the "Dutch" house on the green....and does anyone remember the Windmill that was left to rot.....further afield was the Elizabethan Belhus House with a parkland designed by Capability Brown , now a golf course....so sad that Thurrock Council did not see fit to preserve its history
I too lived on the prefab estate in Larkspur Road...my Mum worked in the village sweetshop/newsagent Hall's (no relation) there was a little café in the back where they would fry up breakfasts , there was also a printing press in an upper room where the stop press got printed..
