Former buildings

This page includes views of Great Baddow as it used to be. These buildings have either been completely demolished, or drastically altered. However, they are worthy of mention, since many older residents remember them with affection from their childhood

The set of 4 photos shows examples of local buildings before they were lost due to rebuilding in the latter part of the last century.

Baddow Hall Manor House
(Demolished and replaced by Baddow Hall Estate in the 1960s. The house stood at the south-west corner of Gilmore Way, named after the last owner, Mrs. Gilmore

Old Shops in the High Street around 1955
(The black and white shops on the right were demolished in the 1960s as part of a road widening scheme.)

Noakes House - front view
Replaced by the Buckley's development in the late 1960s, named after Mr. Buckley, the medical consultant who owned Noakes House at the time)

The Vineyards Mansion
This house was situated where the local shopping centre is located today.
