Thanks for answering Bob. My daughter lived there for 3 years and I never heard Bassett in relation to it. Suppose this is how names get lost and changed over time. Jean. |

Hi all, Martin(my Dad) lives in North Weald Bassett too - he was born and brought up in Hainault, then lived in Harold Wood, then Redbridge. I was born in ILford, brought up in Redbridge, then we moved to North Weald about 15 years ago - where my mum, dad and brother Dan still live. I'm now north of Auckland, NZ, after living in Zimbabwe and Botswana and Feering, Essex in between! Good to see al the place names and think of home. Bye for now Sam and Martin |
