This leaflet advertising Abbey Homestead's Berengrave Park Project was developing the new estates of Childscroft Road, Chalky Bank Road, Parkfield adjacent to Berengrave Lane and the north side of the railway line. This development would have been during the late 1950s/early 1960s at a similar time to the Tilbury Road estates (details of Finwell Road Rainham 1967 - Rainham House Prices) on the opposite side of Station Road. The other roads included were Roystons Close, Bushmeadow Road, Wooldey Road, Dignals Close and Iversgate Close.

If you have any old photos taken on the estate that you could share it would be great to see them - please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
