About Essex
Essex County is located in the South East of England. The ‘county town’ is Chelmsford, and the highest point of the county is Chrishall Common (482 feet above sea level) near the village of Langley, close to the Hertfordshire border. Allen and Young Ltd carry out all moving services including removals, man and van, storage, packing and house clearance in the South East Essex area.
The name Essex derives from the East Seaxe, or East Saxons. The Kingdom of Essex was traditionally founded by Aescwine in 527 AD, occupying territory to the north of the River Thames, and incorporating much of what would later become Middlesex and Hertfordshire, although its land was later restricted to area east of the River Lee. It is through this origin as one of the ‘Saxon’ kingdoms that Essex is specifically not part of the region known as East Anglia (the latter comprising Norfolk, Suffolk, and also Cambridgeshire), settled by tribes calling themselves ‘Anglian’. Colchester in the NE part of the county is Britain’s oldest recorded town, dating back to before the Roman conquest, when it was known as Camulodunon, and was sufficiently well developed to have its own mint.
Essex County Council was formed in 1889. However, the County Borough of West Ham (and from 1915 the County Borough of East Ham) formed part of the county but were not under county council control. Southend-on-Sea also formed a county borough from 1914 to 1974. The boundary with Greater London was established in 1965 when East Ham and West Ham county boroughs and the Barking, Chingford, Dagenham, Hornchurch, Woodford, Leyton, Romford, Walthamstow and Wanstead and Ilford districts were transferred to form the London boroughs of Barking, Havering, Newham, Redbridge & Waltham Forest.
