    • Here are the details of maps for Wickford:

  • Essex (New Series) 72.16 Wickford 1919 - published 2005; intro by Harry Carmichael. ISBN.978-1-84151-774-2

    This detailed map covers the town of Wickford, really little more than a village in 1919. The railway runs NW-SE across the map, with the station in the centre of the map. To the north streets are being laid out, with a scattering of houses among them. Coverage continues east to St Catherine's church and Wickford Hall. The introduction by Harry Carmichael tells the story of Wickford's growth, encouraged first by the railway and later the founding of Basildon New Town. A directory of Wickford in 1895 is included, together with a railway timetable for 1915.
