The station is situated on a single-line branch from Wickford, which escaped closure in the 1960s by Beeching, as it was used to supply the nearby Bradwell nuclear power station. The branch line was electrified in the 1980s, and provides off-peak services to Wickford with direct services to and from London Liverpool Street during rush hour, thus allowing the town's inclusion in the London commuter belt.
Burnham-on-Crouch holds a bi-annual charity fund-raising pub crawl, an event which first took place in June 2007. Typically more than 100 local people walk through the town in themed fancy dress raising money for The Samaritans. There is both a summer and winter edition of the crawl.
The town has two community-based magazines, the larger of the two is The Burnham on Crouch and Dengie Focus which is delivered to every house and business in Burnham and Southminster and can be picked up from collection points throughout Dengie. The other is the Burnham and Dengie Hundred Review, it is smaller in size, A5 and is delivered free across the Dengie.

Visit Burnham-on-Crouch
Called often the Cowes of the East Burnham-on-Crouch has a distinctly nautical atmosphere. Historically it has benefitted from its location on the coast, first as a ferry port, later as a fishing port known for its oyster beds, and most recently as a centre for yachting and arts. The town retains an air of friendly, laid-back relaxation, seemingly unscarred by the frenetic way of todays' life. Burnham is a favourite haunt for day-trippers and although many people visit the town because of the quaint streets and historic buildings, its museum, excellent riverside and parkland walks and the wide choice of eating places and pubs, undoubtedly the majority visit because of the sailing.

Burnham on Crouch is located on the north side of the Crouch river - quite close to London although one would not think so being there. It has benefited from its location on the coast - first as a ferry port, later as a fishing port known for its oyster beds, and most recently as a centre for yachting. There are many listed buildings in the town, including the Grade II* listed Royal Corinthian Yacht Club designed in 1931 by the modernist architect Joseph Emberton. The Mangapps Railway Museum is located nearby.
Although the town has a population of little over 7,500, it is the principal settlement in the wider Dengie peninsula area (population 20,000).
My channel on you tube : is one of the most prolific from Poland. I have produced around 1,800 original films, most in English. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects.
Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!
There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.
Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!
Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!

Mangapps Railway Museum is a privately owned working railway and museum established on a farm at Burnham on Crouch, Essex. It features a ¾ mile standard gauge passenger carrying line, with restored stations, signal boxes and ancillary equipment removed from various sites throughout East Anglia and beyond. To operate the line the Railway has 18 steam and diesel locomotives and over 80 carriages and wagons, some of considerable historic and technical interest.
To complement the working Railway, the Museum has a collection of smaller railway relics which is one of the largest of its kind in Britain. This collection contains historic items connected with every aspect of railway operation and has a particular bias towards the railways of East Anglia and Railway signalling - in fact the signalling collection is believed to be the largest on public display in Britain.
The Railway and Museum are owned and operated by the Jolly family assisted by a dedicated staff of volunteers.

31430 is named after Dorothy Wyndlow Pattison who was the eleventh of twelve children of Rev Mark James Pattison and his wife, Jane. In the autumn of 1864, she joined the Sisterhood of the Good Samaritans at Coatham, Middlesbrough, and became known as Sister Dora. She would devote the remainder of her life to nursing. She was sent to work at Walsall's hospital in Bridge Street and arrived in Walsall on 8 January 1865. The rest of her life was spent in Walsall. She worked at the Cottage Hospital at The Mount until 1875, when Walsall was hit by smallpox. She worked for six months at an epidemic infirmary set up in Deadman's Lane (now Hospital Street), treating thousands of patients. During the last two years of her life, she worked at the hospital in Bridgeman Street, overlooking the South Staffordshire Railway (later the London and North Western Railway). She developed a special bond of friendship with railway workers who often suffered in industrial accidents. The railwaymen gave her a pony and a carriage and even raised the sum of £50 from their own wages to enable her to visit housebound patients more easily

47579 is named after railwayman James William Nightall GC (1922 - 1944) was posthumously awarded the George Cross for the gallantry he showed during the Soham rail disaster. Nightall was a LNER Fireman on a fifty-one wagon ammunition train driven by Benjamin Gimbert. When the wagon caught fire, Nightall helped Gimbert uncouple it from the rest of the train. The wagon exploded, killing Nightall instantly. The explosion blew a twenty-foot crater in the track, destroyed Soham railway station and damaged 600 buildings in the village. Gimbert, who miraculously survived the conflagration, was also awarded the George Cross.

lets discover burnham
lets travel to burnham to a old village
burnham is a self-contained village in the western part of the District. Burnham Park Hall, built 25 years ago, form the social centre of the village. Many local societies, ranging from winemakers to keep-fit, meet here. It is also the home of Burnham Parish Council. The village is an ancient hamlet on the Bath Road, which may have been inhabited even before Roman times. Burnham is mentioned in the Domesday Book and in Medieval times had a market and a fair.
In The High Street are numerous 16th and 17th century buildings. A by-road leads to the 13th-century church with its array of brasses and tombs, some of which date from the 16th century. The oldest part of the building is the tower which is believed to date from about 1200. The remains of the 15th-century screen still bear traces of medieval colouring.
Burnham Abbey, founded in 1266 by Richard, Earl of Cornwall (King John's second son) stands south of the main Bath Road and is closer to Dorney Village than to Burnham. After the Dissolution, the abbey fell into ruins but it has been revived and is now the centre of a community known as 'The Sisters of the Precious Blood'. Lancet windows, early doorways and parts of the Chapter House and cloisters serve as reminders of the older foundation. Indeed, more survives of this abbey than of any other monastic institution in Buckinghamshire.
Close to Burnham Abbey is Huntercombe Manor, which is now a centre for the rehabilitation of young people who have had recourse to drugs. Although mostly of the 19th century, this Grade 1 Listed Building does contain a rather splendid 14th century beamed hall.
Adjacent to Burnham, is Hitcham whose small church has work of many styles and ages from the Norman period onwards. The brick tower is Tudor, the chancel arch is Norman and the chancel is of the 14th century. In the chancel windows is 14th-century glass showing the nine Orders of Angels and the four Evangelists. Nearby are the ancient walls and two huge iron gates which once enclosed the mansion where Sir William Clark entertained Elizabeth I the year before she died.
North of Burnham, past the golf course, is Dorneywood, an estate of 215 acres owned by the National Trust. The house (built in 1920 and containing decorations by Rex Whistler) acts as an official residence for a Minister of the Crown currently the Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott.
Adjoining Dorneywood are Burnham Beeches, the habitat of a wide section of wildlife. The Beeches have long been the rendezvous of artists, poets and country-lovers and Thomas Gray was a frequent visitor during his time at Stoke Poges. Burnham Beeches are a relic of the great primeval forest that covered much of Buckinghamshire and they form the finest woodland tract anywhere near London. In 1878, the woods - 375 acres in all - were saved from despoliation when they were purchased by the City of London and in 1921 Lord Burnham gave the 65 acres of Fleet Wood. With adjacent Dorneywood, Dropmore and Cliveden, there is thus an area of well over 1300 acres here that is preserved as a natural open space for all time.
In 1773, Sheridan brought his young bride to live at East Burnham and here too George Grote produced his first volumes of the History of Greece. He built East Burnham Park out of the profits and in this great house he finished his work and was often visited here by his friend Mendelssohn.
The one-time hamlet of Lent Rise lies to the south-west of Burnham proper, on the borders of Burnham and Taplow. The word 'Lent' comes from the Old English word meaning 'shelter'. Lent Rise was one of the many brick-making areas of South Bucks until this century. The Methodist Church in Eastfield Road (built in 1897) occupies the site where a brickworks once stood. Many of the houses in Lent Rise date from Victorian times and from the beginning of this century shops began to appear. Lent Rise is now a busy community.
