@Southend on Sea - growth of a town

Successive maps show the growth of Southend on Sea. The area's strategic position at the mouth of the Thames estuary may have lent it some economic and military significance in prehistoric times: the siting of the the princely Anglo-Saxon barrow may support this idea. Thomas Archer's speculative venture in the 1790's with the Royal terrace was something of a false start in modern times, but the coming of the railway turned a sleepy rural backwater into a boomtown, a commuter suburb for City workers, and a seaside resort within reach of London Bank Holidaymakers.
