Wickford?
« on: Friday 16 June 06 16:56 BST (UK) »
Hello,

Is anyone here from Wickford?

I'm trying to find a pub called 'The Castle Inn'. My ancestors lived next door to it. I tried googling it, but couldn't find anything.

Just wondering what street its on, as the street name isn't mentioned on the census return.

Paul.

Thanks for that!

Just trying to find a picture, hopefully the houses next door will be on it.

Just read the pub was demolished to make way for a supermarket in 1998, chances are my Ancestors house was too! :(

Hi Paul,

I have been away looking for an Essex book of ours which may have had a picture in it, but it must be one that is packed away :-\ We downsized last year and do not have enough storage space ??? When we find it I will remember to look for you.

Kind Regards,

Frances :)
