Billericay Town Crier Billericay Town Crier April 2015 www.billericaytowncouncil.gov.uk THE OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE BILLERICAY TOWN COUNCIL @BillericayTC BILLERICAY’S SECOND COMMUNITY WEEKEND his is the second time that Billericay Town Council in conjunction with Churches Together has held a service to Tcelebrate a weekend of community events in Billericay. This year Emmanuel Church in Laindon Road was the host venue and a wonderfully uplifting service was led by the Rev. Paul Carr and the Rev. Paul Gambling. Musical entertainment was provided by The Choir for All Seasons and the High Voltage Big Band. Lord Petre; the Lord Lieutenant of Essex, Cllr. John Aldridge; Vice- Chairman of Essex County Council and County Cllr Kay Twitchen were in the audience, along with members of the Billericay Town Council, Youth Town Council, Street Pastors, representatives of local organisations and worshippers from all the Billericay Churches. It is hoped that a Civic Service will again be held in 2016, as it brings members of the community together to celebrate all that is good about living in Billericay and to give thanks to those people who do so much within the town. Other events that happened in the Community Weekend; a hospitality event at St Mary Magdalen with exhibits from community funded projects and activities plus refreshments were available for donations. The Methodist Church were celebrating the 91st anniversary of their church in Billericay. Cllr Buchanan gives his talk at the Civic Service. They also did a litter pick on Sunday and are running a lunch club project for children during the school holidays. The Town Council held two events during the weekend. On Saturday morning a successful litter pick took place in the town area of Billericay which included the areas of the High Street, Lake Meadows and Festival Gardens. Nearly 40 people, including street pastors and a group of air cadets helped the pick achieve a total of 30 bags. On Saturday afternoon a walk was organised, led by local Essex Wildlife Trust volunteers, to launch the second of our Billericay Countryside Walks Leaflets. This leaflet describes three circular walks from Queens Park Country Park towards Mountnessing Church, Stock and Ingatestone. The leaflets are intended for use by those who are not regular country walkers ACF Staff Sergeant Callum McDonald, Lord Petre, Lord Lieutenant of Essex, so routes are described in detail and notes of the wildlife that Town Council Chairman John Buchanan and County Councillor Kay Twitchen. might be seen along the way are included. The free leaflets are available from Billericay Library, the Town Council offices and Norsey Wood Information Centre and will shortly also be in stock at the EWT Visitor Centres at Hanningfield Reservoir and Thorndon Country Park. The launch event walk took place in warm spring sunshine. A direct route was taken across fields to Mountnessing Church with a longer return through quiet countryside via Tilehurst, Buttsbury and the Wid Valley. Birds seen included little egret, heron, kestrel, bullfinch and yellowhammer and, upon returning to the Country Park, walkers enjoyed an extended flying display by a bat which had been tempted out of its winter hibernation Litter Picking in Festival Gardens – Street Pastor Andrea Mendez and Mick Dunn from RBL. by the milder weather.

It is a fun and enjoyable event which gives pleasure to all concerned. There is something for everyone, young and old. You do not need to be an expert. Why not enter a hanging basket? Or a container?

    SLEEPY WILLOWS Laindon Common Road | Little Burstead | Billericay |CM12 9TL SLEEPY WILLOWS Laindon Common Road | Little Burstead | Billericay | CM12 9TL SLEEPY WILLOWS | Laindon Common Road • Refurbished detached 4 bedroom character home originally built circa 1800 • En-suites to 2 bedrooms • Secluded position in a charming village • Large plot to both the front and rear offering exceptional privacy When the current owners bought this exceptional property some 13 years ago they had a vision and a dream to transform it into the fabulous home that it is today. Although the property is over 200 years old they have managed to strike the perfect balance between old and new by adding such features as en-suites, vaulted ceilings and skylight windows, whilst still retaining the properties exceptional character. Family time can be spent in the kitchen/diner and conservatory while more formal dining and relaxing with guests can be enjoyed in the semi-open plan lounge and dining area. The feature chimney breast fireplace neatly zones the lounge and dining area making this a wonderfully social space perfect for hosting dinner parties. The ground floor bedroom with en-suite ensures that guests feel welcome to stay over on a Saturday evening, but be warned the moment they step into your garden on Sunday morning to enjoy breakfast, they won’t want to leave. It is such a private and secluded position that you really do feel like you are in the middle of the countryside and it’s the perfect place to relax the day away. Although in a semi-rural position the property is within a few minutes of bustling historic Billericay that also has a mainline railway station offering fast and frequent services into London Liverpool Street station.
