Download or read book Aspects of Wickford History written by Maurice Wakeham and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wickford is a product of the last 150 years. It is a town that has grown in population from around 600 in 1901 to 30,000 today. On the other hand people have lived here for thousands of years. Wickford was a centre for the Roman army. It was important enough to be mentioned in Domesday book. Flooding was frequent and health was poor. A mainly agricultural community, it did not go untouched by the religious and political upheavals that affected the nation. Within hailing distance of the 14th century revolt against the king, in the 20th century its nearness to London put it in the way of bombing raids in the Second World War. It was also the home of the Darby Digger, a 20 ton machine that moved like a crab. The expansion of London and the coming of the railway changed it from a rural village, to a frontier shanty town, to a thriving commuter suburb. This book attempts to outline and explain the growth of this typical suburban town, through the study of documents, maps, photographs and the memories of the people of Wickford.

Download or read book Wickford written by Judith Williams and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The town of Wickford nestles in a meander of the River Crouch, just north of Basildon in south Essex. Its name, at various times written as Wickeford, Wyckford or Wygford, is Saxon in origin and means 'a sheep farm on a river crossing'. However, the town predates the name and has existed since the Bronze Age or earlier. This new and detailed history of Wickford traces the town's fortunes from its humble beginnings as a tiny farming hamlet beset by regular flooding and poverty, to the bustling commuter town it is today. The author studies factors such as population growth, changing economic activities and town development to shed light on the challenges the town has faced. These include agricultural depressions, cholera outbreaks, exploitation by land developers, heavy bombing during the Second World War and near absorption into the rapid urban spread of Basildon New Town. The reviewer who, for Pigott's 1832 Directory, wrote, 'There is nothing worthy of note attached to this place', clearly had not delved into either the history or community of Wickford. The town has always inspired loyalty and affection from its inhabitants, from Joan Risson, who bequeathed 3s. 4d. to the Wickford poor box in 1567, to Abraham Bell, an 18th-century churchwarden whose accounts are full of creative spellings, and James Gigney, who used his own money to provide additional lighting and water supplies to the developing 19th-century town. With more than 160 magnificent illustrations, A History of Wickford provides new insight into the town's history and development, and will appeal to local historians and residents alike.
