Salisbury Avenue

Another auction of land was conducted by Messrs Beadel in August 1887 again at the Auction Mart in London and amongst other much larger sales of land in Great Wakering and Basildon were plots totalling just over eight acres in the village, one known as Green Field now the site of Rectory Road and the other known as Acre Piece now the site of Salisbury Avenue.

As with the previous photos of the Victoria Road area, these views also from the early years of the 20th century are still quite recognisable today
