Get South Ockendon pros

South Ockendon is a town as well as Church of England parish in the Thurrock district as well as unitary area in Essex in the East of England, UK. It is located on the boundary with Greater London, just outside the M25 motorway. The area to the north is North Ockendon. South Ockendon village became a location for prefabricated homes (prefabs) suiting bombed-out locals of East London/West Essex in the very late 40s. Much of the original post-war building was taken on by former German prisoners of war. The majority of these were destroyed in the late-1960s when a large Greater London Council estate, Lecaplan “concrete” building and construction houses– the Flowers’ Estate– was built to replace them, once again with pre-fabricated houses, albeit of a remarkable design. The Lecaplan Type B type of pre-cast concrete (huge panel concrete) terrace is built in rows of eight residential or commercial properties to a design by J C Tilley and also produced by W. & C. French. In the 1970s the Ford Motor Company factory at Aveley housed Ford’s Advanced Vehicle Operations which developed vehicles such as the RS1600. The plant was unwinded progressively from the late 90’s yet shut completely in 2004, when the last 150 work were shed. Most of the 150 workers approved transfers to other Ford or secondary websites around Essex. The ‘Aveley’ plant was located along and west of the railway line, beside Ockendon station in the Belhus Ward that part of Ockendon has currently been become new real estate estates, with street names after popular Ford cars in keeping with the sites history.
