Thanks - realise from my bio that it is not obvious that I’m a trustee of #VCHEssex! We’ve just had our quarterly meeting, but I will mention it at the next meeting. Silver End is v interesting and I agree could be a good short.
Main focus for #VCHEssex is currently finishing off our #BigRedBook on Harwich, but I know we are starting to think about possible future projects (and funding for them), so will pass on the idea of Silver End (and possible Crittall support).
Posts by me here & on The Other Place about Silver Town, Essex, the Crittall Family & Elizabeth Crittall, of the family & important 20thC local (Wiltshire) & *VCH* historian point towards at least a Silver Town *VCH Short* that Crittalls may help with if asked nicely.
