The southern end of the large Telephone Exchange in Bradleigh Avenue, Grays, near the junction with Orsett Road and Bridge Road. Work began on this treasure of a New Elizabethan building c. 1956 and and was completed in 1957. A number of cherry trees, still providing spectacular blossom each spring, were planted at that time.
