Basildon is a borough in Essex made up of three towns, Basildon, Billericay and Wickford, and the country around them. Chelmsford lies to the north, Brentwood to the west, Thurrock to the south, and Castle Point and Rochford to the east.
Basildon was designated a new town in 1949 and grew to take in the older villages of Laindon, Vange and Pitsea. It was laid out with plenty of open space, and Gloucester Park fills the middle of the town. Billericay is an older market town, founded in the 13th century, and four of its people sailed on the Mayflower in 1620. Wickford's name records a crossing of the River Crouch, which rises in the borough and runs through the town.
About half of the borough is green belt. Wat Tyler Country Park, on Pitsea Marsh south of Pitsea, was once the site of an explosives factory and now has an RSPB visitor centre. Essex Wildlife Trust runs a large reserve at Langdon. In Billericay, the nature reserves of Norsey Wood and Mill Meadows run in from the countryside to the town centre, and Lake Meadows is one of its two main parks.
Two railways link the borough with London and Southend. c2c trains on the London, Tilbury and Southend line call at Laindon, Basildon and Pitsea. Greater Anglia trains on the Shenfield to Southend line call at Billericay and Wickford, where the Crouch Valley line to Southminster branches off. The A127 and A13 also run to London and Southend, and the A130 connects the borough with Chelmsford.
