Watch this space:
The Shoeburyness Heritage Centre
Southend Borough Council is currently working
with local interest groups to establish a heritage centre in the former Battery Gun Shed at Gunners' Park to interpret
the military and environmental history of the area. Detailed plans for the building are being drawn up and will be presented
at a public consultation in the next couple of months. At that time, a management committee will be formed, who will take
the project forward to provide a superb educational study and research facility for South Essex.
Wickford Photos
The Wickford Community Archive group are
compiling an archive of material relating to Wickford and its surrounds. The archive will be kept at Wickford Library, but
it is hoped that much of the material will be digitised and will be made available via the internet.
If anyone
has any documents or photographs of Wickford that they would like to donate to the archive, please contact Wickford Library.
Coming soon:
The Green Centre,
Wat Tyler Country Park, Pitsea
The Basildon Borough Museum and Heritage Group are proud to announce
the imminent arrival of the Green Centre at Wat Tyler Park. The centre will interpret the history of the area, with photographs,
documents and information about the activities that went on and the people who lived there.
