Sandy Crescent, Great Wakering
This shows the Waters Edge development that was launched in 2014 with the first residents moving in about two years later. This is all in stark contrast to how the area was when it was the site of the Star Lane brickworks. Hence the names - Sandy Crescent, Kiln Way and Brick Road - of the new roads. Geographs including Image and Image show how the area used to look. "Waters Edge" refers not to the beaches of nearby Southend but to some flooded claypits at the end of Sandy Crescent.

Star Lane brickworks
Here you can see just how muddy this place is, but the mud is a lovely rich orange colour, the same as the bricks. Brick making was the main industry during the Industrial Revolution and early 20th Century around this part of Great Wakering.

Clay delivery shed, Star Lane Brickworks, 1989
Locomotive (Alan Keef 40SD530 of 1987) and skips are shut away for the weekend. As far as I could make out the line went no further into the works. There was another locomotive in the shed on a short branch to the left.
