Seen they've given it a fresh lick of paint, since I was a kid and lived there during the 80's. Born in Basikdon (1978), moved to Southend (1989). Used to live just off of Clayhill Rd, Vange, North Crockerford. Such fun, fun times as a kid.

That was a serene trip around Basildon, on a nice day. It's not the Basildon I remember from the 90s, but could be great again with a makeover which respects the original design. Spruce up everything. No idea about the empty shops, though. People have to want to open businesses.

The council do try to invigorate Basildon but shopping habits have changed and that’s a lot of shops to fill. Bringing the college down was a good idea but building so many flats may not be wise,unless planning is done well. Basildon has lots of potential. I hope it works out.

At 4.30 many shops seen closed. This is not bad. The local council is planning to demolish the entire block and re-develop the site..

I grew up in Basildon. Sadly, it is now a shadow of its former self. Needs levelling and starting again.

I was born in Basildon Hospital and it’s always been kind of a miserable place to live. I personally wouldn’t know since we lived in Wickford and moved to California when I was 3 years old.

Let's be honest, it's a dying crap hole. I can say that as I was born and raised there. Managed to tunnel out couple of decades ago.
