Looking along Hillcrest Avenue one can clearly see the remains of ridges and furrows caused by many years of ploughing before plots were sold off before WW2 for holiday homes. However these features are difficult to show in a two dimensional photo. For more information on the Dunton Plotlands see http://www.basildon.com/history/dunton/plotland.html the area is now a Nature Reserve owned by Essex Wildlife Trust http://www.essexwt.org.uk/visitor_centres__nature_reserves/langdon/ To continue on a virtual tour based the Plotlands Walk (copies available currently for 75p from Image ) go to Image
