About this product
Product Information
South Woodham Ferrers is better known as a modern new town rather than a settlement in history. Never a traditional Essex village, its origins lie firmly in the railway age. Nevertheless, though its life spans little more than a century, it does have a history. After the railway station opened the unproductive fields of two adjoining farms in the Crouch valley were divided by estate roads and parcelled into hundreds of individual building plots which were offered for sale to Londoners. The 1920s and a 30s saw the growth of a thriving community, housing estates and new businesses.Product Identifiers

A Good Pictorial History
Excellent read for someone , like me, who lived in the village some sixty years ago, that is before the coming of the ‘new town’ started in the mid-1970s !Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Very comprensive
A very interesting book detailing the development of SWF from a small village to the town it is today with many photographs. Probably most interesting to the residents and particularly those who remember it before Essex County Council developed it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
