Wat Tyler Country Park
Wat Tyler Country Park sits within the South Essex Marshes which are steeped in history from the earliest periods – a landscape created over many centuries through the interaction of human communities and the natural environment. The Park shares the historical significance of the surrounding marsh area but it has a significant history in its own right.
The features of its landscape such as grazing meadows, ancient hedgerows, blast mounds, tidal waterways, sea walls and field boundaries are evidence of the way people used the area. There are also structures such as pill boxes, roadways, MoD buildings that all provide an insight into the history of the Park.
Wat Tyler Centre
The Wat Tyler Centre opened in Wat Tyler Country Park, Basildon in late July 2009.
This new Heritage Lottery funded visitor centre features a permanent exhibition, themed around the industrial and environmental heritage of the park.
The exhibition begins with the historical use of the site as an explosives factory at the end of the 19th Century, and moves on to explore the ways the land has been used ever since, notably as the Sea Transport Stores last active during the Suez crisis, then as a country park.
