Wickford at a glance
Homes
Wickford was a farming village until the railway arrived in 1889, and its housing is largely twentieth-century suburban estates around a compact centre. Shotgate, on the eastern side, began as plotland on Enfield Road and Oak Avenue and gained further estates in 1989. Runwell, to the north, includes St Luke's Park, around 580 homes on the former Runwell Hospital site. Gateway House on Runwell Road added 122 one and two-bedroom flats in 2026. Where a house has a drive, bulky items load directly; flats mean stairs, lifts and shared entrances.
House clearance in WickfordBuilding work
Recent house building in Wickford has centred on Runwell, where St Luke's Park is replacing the former hospital, and on Runwell Road, where the Gateway House flats were completed in April 2026. Basildon Council's town centre programme covers High Street improvements, a new market, public toilets and refurbishment of Wickford Pool. The River Crouch crosses the centre in a concrete channel, and the High Street has at times been closed to traffic on Saturdays for the market, so skip deliveries and lorry stops near the centre are easier on other days.
Skip hire in WickfordBusinesses
Wickford's shops run along the High Street, with The Willows shopping centre opening off it and the Ladygate Centre, built in the late 1960s, also in the town centre. A Saturday market has traded on the High Street and, for a period, from Woodlands Road. Trade and light industrial units are grouped at Wickford Business Park and on Hodgson Way and Hurricane Way in Shotgate, an area developed from the late 1980s. Shops and cafes produce cardboard, packaging and food waste, while the Shotgate units generate pallets, offcuts and mixed trade waste.
