Introduction

A small country village for centuries, Basildon's reincarnation as a concrete jungle fits the Essex image to perfection - the Holy Cross Church is the only reminder of its ancient history. A handful of parks add much-needed vitality to a town stuck in a mire of flashy trash and the very brash.
