Hi Martin it's sue. We worked together in Asda yuck! I was in Nazareth house before I was adopted at 18 months old. Don't remember a thing there lol xx take care

[@DE-eVOLVED]

Hi Sue, How are ya ? .. Good and bad memories from there..but made some great friends there.. Hopefully it was a good stay there.. 🙏👍👍 Good to hear from you 💯

[@janpayne7731]

Thank you for dping the video. Heartbreaking to think it's going to be pulled down

[@lindachurchman9521]

So pleased I saw your page - sadly as I say it’s being knocked down - but planning for plans for flats was not approved I don’t think

[@tinaspringett6410]

Absolutely brilliant and 😢sad lots of artifacts will be lost. As a youngster I always wondered what it was like. Sadly I found out in 2016 when my mother inlaw was placed there with dementia and passed away in November 2017. A very interesting place. Thank you so much for your explorations.

Thanks for sharing this video. I do hope that the Chapel is preserved, as it is/was very beautiful indeed.

Do you ever remember a little boy named Konrad Elchadus? He was there in the 50s til mid 60s.

[@FayeOwens_Ss]

I live 3 mins walk away from this and always wanted to go explore inside. You’ve made a fantastic video, thank you 😁

[@DE-eVOLVED]

Hi Faye 👋 Thankyou for your nice comment, I am glad you enjoyed it 👌🙏

[@neillroy]

Fascinating walk around, always wanted to see inside that building. Wondering, do you get permission to access? or....

[@andrewpaine2148]

I done community service there at the back in the corner garden and graveyard where you started 😂🤣 few years ago 2014

[@AnnieOakley-lm9es]

I sat at that reception desk for many years. Can get lost if you dont know where you're going.

[@DE-eVOLVED]

It defo feels like a maze inside. did you enjoy working there ?

[@AnnieOakley-lm9es]

Yes I worked there for over 10 years. Did all sorts of jobs there. Housekeeper, cook, admin, receptionist. Building held many stories and did feel eerie at times.

[@AnnieOakley-lm9es]

And the crypt for all the time I worked there hled statues and Christmas decorations

[@DE-eVOLVED]

@AnnieOakley-lm9es that's very interesting, what statues were in the crypt ? Religious ones ? ..

[@AnnieOakley-lm9es]

Yes religious ones . Also was used as a crypt too for nuns that had passed away a long time ago though so I was told by one of sisters a long time ago.

[@maureenbarnetson817]

Absolutely brilliant video of Such a fabulous and historic building. Have visited Nazareth House on a few occasions over the years and have attended a service in the chapel and visited The care home. My daughter and friend's who attended St Bernard’s Convent and my grandchildren visited the elderly residents at Christmas for Carol Service. It is so sad to see the demise of such a well loved building which meant so much to many people of Southend. I think they call this progress. I am not so sure. Thankyou for sharing and being so informative. Keep up the good work ☘️☘️☘️

[@DE-eVOLVED]

Hi Maureen, Thank you 👍👍 I have always wondered what it looked like behind the big wall and tall gates and am so happy to have now answered that question. I am glad you enjoyed it I would have loved to have witnessed the Christmas festivities in the Chapel.. even in its dilapidated state it still had character and a comfortable feeling. Thank you for your nice comments - I hope you enjoy the other videos we have done and the ones still to come in the future 🥂 - Martin/DE-eVOLVED

Hiya to all the fellow southenders in the comments 👋🏼

[@stevewarrington5515]

[@Monkey-tj2ns]

Fantastic! Been wanting to explore there myself. I was familiar with Nazareth House growing up. My parents often went to mass there and many of their friends ended up as residents. If they knock it all down it would be such a shame. Thanks for letting us see it in its current state!

[@DE-eVOLVED]

Hi Monkey, I am glad you enjoyed my video 🙏👍👍 its huge inside I agree - from a history/heritage point of view it would/will be a big loss imo .. Feel free to request to join our FaceBook page where I've added a wealth of still photographs as well as photos and videos and historic information on other local gems. 👍👍🥂

[@01chittock]

I lived there as a child, in the White House is where the children lived….but in the 80s they stopped taken children in, they turned the whole place into a old nursing home for the elderly! The times I went to church here! It’s really saddening that it’s all being demolished!

[@DE-eVOLVED]

Do you have any photographs from back then ?

[@stevec00ps]

In the 80s I went to the primary school next door (St Helens) and lived just a few mins away, always wondered what it was like inside! How come all those cars were parked there?

[@01chittock]

Should’ve asked the children like me who went to St Helens and lived in Nazareth house ! It’s really sad seeing it all being demolished!

[@elliemay427]

So I worked here outside over the covid period doing bank work swabbing outpatients for covid for procedures. We had access to one side of the building it had an office in and a room where we put our stuff in with toilets. Always gave me a bit of a weird feeling being there! There’s people who live in there they’re students I think? I knew someone who lived in there. A lot of them would come outside and have a bbq etc.

[@marilynnstoneman8654]

Just watching this video and I used to walk past this lovely building and it is sad to see the state it is ,typical of this so called council to let it go to disrepair as they want to knock it down to build houses and flats,just as they did with the old Riverlie theatre and other places they want gone,look out Kursal,such a shame all our heritage going,maybe someone might come along and save it expecially the Chapel,nobody should destroy that. Blessings. Marilynn.

[@crisa.1627]

I used to work here, 2017-2019. seen the place last year with a friend who rented a room there, it’s sad to see the chapel this way in ruins now. Thanks for the video though! ❤

[@freshPrinceOfBelfairs]

I had a summer job working in those kitchens - they have changed quite a bit since 1990. We catered for about 80-90 residents plush 6-8 nuns for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

[@jodiecraig2034]

Beautiful building, was gutted when I heard they're due to knock this down. I really hope by some miracle this doesnt happen

[@DE-eVOLVED]

I couldnt agree more Jodie, i am not a fan of all the modern 'thoughtless' architecture.. the original buildings have far more charm and character. 🤍

[@cliveburton5783]

Well the pope wouldn't of been there being he in the Vatican in Rome 😂 😂 seem to skip loads with a hint of panic not knowing your way out, but always wanted to know what was inside naz house good video

[@pauliecook432]

39.49 are you alone in there? Sound slide someone's with you Martin

[@DE-eVOLVED]

It may have been security... although I didn't see anyone. ...I hadn't noticed that before 🤔there is on site security ..I think they are in the middle or upper level...its possible they may have gone to another area or used the stairs etc.. 🤔... I've just got back from doing our latest explore ... am shattered lol... Expect new content some time this week 👌

[@MinxLaura123sWackyWorld]

I live near here... oooo did it have creepy vibe?? Did u see hear anythin ghostly ????

[@01chittock]

Nothing creepy about that place! I lived there in the 70s,,,,,and no face too much religion, and prayers for any Demon to live there!

[@marilynnstoneman8654]

😊trying to do update but keeps disappearing.Nazareth House was formerly MILTON HALL built in 1770,it was completed in1794.Held in Norman times 822 and a confirmation carter of Edward the Confessor mentions it.This house is Southend heritage and properties built after 1770 are automatically listed so I believe this is a listed building.In the crypt or under the crypt lie the remains of Mr Clement Scott and Bishop Bellard(a war Army Chaplain) so to my mind they cannot pull this building down.😢 I am contacting Heritage England for further guidance,I have also contacted the Sisters of Nazareth but received a closed reply similar to that of the Council,hmm I wonder.😮

[@01chittock]

The chapel was listed!!! I don’t understand how they got the go ahead to pull it all down? I lived there in the 70s and 80s. And I think all remains were removed from the crypt back in the late 70s early 80s! I remember the crane removing such a coffin, which was made from led, and laid to rest in the graveyard that’s there! I wonder if that’s going to be moved?

[@Ellewoman]

I've often walked past and wondered about this building and those that had to use it. Thanks. Wondering if there are people who lived there that can tell their story.

[@01chittock]

It was an amazing building until they turned it into a nursing home! The marble floors everywhere, Marble stairs all the way to the top in the White House. I lived there as a child, and my bedroom was on the top floor! It’s really sad to see this being demolished!

[@goober-ll1wx]

Are you any relation to Ali G ??

[@DE-eVOLVED]

lol 😂 I used to get that a lot.. I've changed my glasses now 😂😂

[@colinredburn6574]

What a great explore Martin, and well done for doing it on your own, cant believe what a huge mess the corridors where in amazing the lack of respect they give when clearing out these places as they go copper hunting...

[@DE-eVOLVED]

Hi Colin, Thankyou !! Am glad you enjoyed it.. one thing I do plan to improve on in the future is getting a new gimbal ..usually I have both hands on the phone/camera to hold it steady whilst others use their torches ..but since I was on my own this time I did the best I could.. some of the corridors were better than others.. It was an amazing explore !! - Check out the LINK to our Facebook page where I have added some of the still photographs and some more in-depth history of the site :) Stay tuned - More content coming soon - Martin/DE-eVOLVED

[@barbarabradford5428]

Hi Martin just watched yr video, I was put in this building with my two brothers in the 50s I don't remember any of it like in the video,....The outside is more or less the same ,some say ...oh what a beautiful building...but to us kids it was a place of misery daily .I use to dream and plan my escape route to London, but my little brother was frightened. So I never did escape, all gates were locked, so much I could say about the place ..none very nice maybe if someone is interested I would be will to tell more......thankyou Martin for interesting video

[@josephinemitchell9504]

The long drawers in the two cuoboards are what dreams are made of. Just left to rot. Sacrilege.

[@samantharawlinson3405]

How sad that such a big,old building like that has been vacated. I always remember seeing nuns come and go there.

[@DE-eVOLVED]

I cant remeber it when it was last in use, its always been tucked away and hidden.. I was amazed at just how big the building/s were..

[@freshPrinceOfBelfairs]

Looks like someone has been and stripped the copper pipes out of the place.

[@vampesque]

Ure defo not Catholic 🤣 brave though spooky as fck in there

[@karljones8860]

I worked on the roof of main building in mid nineties. To this day one of best jobs ever done the size of the building 50,000 slates so much lead work 5 months work loved everyday..

[@ogstopper]

I studied Latin in Nazareth House in the early 1960s. After lessons we would go to the chapel, pray, then finish with tea and biscuits with the nuns. When it was complete, the chapel was stunningly beautiful and was an extremely peaceful place. It’s sad to see it run down. The place was an orphanage at that time, and I became friends with two brothers (Charlie and Freddie) who lived there. It seems like it was only yesterday. Great film.
