  • Issue 7 Sound & Environment: Sense of Place
    Issue 7 Sound & Environment: Sense of Place What does Essex sound like? Capturing the changing sounds of an English county By Sarah-Joy Maddeaux, Stuart Bowditch Abstract What does Essex sound like? How have its soundscapes changed? What do its soundscapes reveal about Essex society and culture? In 2015, the Essex Sound and Video Archive at the Essex Record Office gained a Heritage Lottery Fund grant to run the project, You Are Hear: sound and a sense of place. One output was an online audio map of past and present sounds of Essex, aiming to showcase the county’s diversity through its soundscapes, and to encourage comparisons of historic and present-day recordings. This article will describe the processes behind the development of the audio map, then give a flavour of the types of soundscapes we captured. Finally, the paper will question what the map reveals about the soundscapes of this oft-maligned British county, and what function the map can serve in developing a sense of place for the county’s inhabitants. Keywords - Essex, sound map, soundscapes, public engagement, sound archive Introduction: Developing the sound map Waves crashing against the shore while the wind beats relentlessly against all obstacles. The drone of car after car whizzing down busy dual carriageways. The repetitive bang, hum, or snap of industrial machinery. Birds chirping in an otherwise tranquil atmosphere. And always, near or far, a plane flying overhead. These are the sounds of Essex – so what? In 2015, the Essex Sound and Video Archive (ESVA) at the Essex Record Office (ERO) was awarded a Your Heritage grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund to run a three-year project, You Are Hear: sound and a sense of place.

    www.gov.uk/englandcoastpath England Coast Path Stretch: Tilbury to Southend-on-Sea Report TSE 5: Ferry Road, Benfleet to Barge Pier, Shoeburyness Part 5.1: Introduction Start Point: Ferry Road, Benfleet (Grid reference TQ 7799 8570) End Point: Barge Pier, Shoeburyness (Grid reference TQ 9311 8396) Relevant Maps: TSE 5a to TSE 5k 5.1.1 This is one of a series of linked but legally separate reports published by Natural England under section 51 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, which make proposals to the Secretary of State for improved public access along and to this stretch of coast between Tilbury and Southend-on-Sea 5.1.2 This report covers length TSE 5 of the stretch, which is the coast between Ferry Road, Benfleet and Barge Pier, Shoeburyness. It makes free-standing statutory proposals for this part of the stretch, and seeks approval for them by the Secretary of State in their own right under section 52 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. 5.1.3 The report explains how we propose to implement the England Coast Path (“the trail”) on this part of the stretch, and details the likely consequences in terms of the wider ‘Coastal Margin’ that will be created if our proposals are approved by the Secretary of State. Our report also sets out: any proposals we think are necessary for restricting or excluding coastal access rights to address particular issues, in line with the powers in the legislation; and any proposed powers for the trail to be capable of being relocated on particular sections (“roll- back”), if this proves necessary in the future because of coastal change.
