About Basildon - show infohide info

Basildon is an industrial town located in Essex in England. It is around 30m east of London and 12m from Chelmsford. Its bypasses include the A127 and A13. Basildon is named from early Saxon days, with its origin in 'Beorhtels Hill'. Artefacts have however been found dating back to the Stone Age, including a Bronze Age axe discovered in Vange. During Roman times, Basildon became a more organised and standardised living space as the Romans built new roads, new towns and founded local industries. However, the Black Death of 1388 instigated a decline in population of the Essex villages. And this, combined with a change of emphasis from agriculture to sheep farming stunted Basildon’s growth for a time. Basildon is however mentioned in the Domesday Book several times. Many Essex men joined the lronsides during the Civil War and a grim reminder of those days is represented by the clock face on a large house at Burstead. In the creation of modern Basildon, is was designated and officially created as one of eight 'New Towns' destined for South-East England in 1949 following the New Towns act of 1946. As Basildon’s now main industries of chemicals, clothing, printing and automotive engineering continued to grow, the town expanded, and grew to accommodate the over spilling population from London. Basildon is ideally located for the London commute. With its railway station opened in 1974, it forms a part of the London commuter belt. Basildon council is however still trying to cope with the legacy of poor quality housing built on many estates in the 60s. Politically, Basildon is held up as the standard measure of public opinion, and has continued to return General Election results in line with the nation since the 1950s. Basildon’s town landmark is a belltower measuring 95ft high. It was opened in 1999, but the bells did not ring regularly until 2003 due a funding row. The magnificent belltower is now owned by St Martin's Parochial Church Council, and the bells ring regularly on Sundays, public holidays, weddings and funerals.
