The stretch of river through the village was once a favourite haunt for smugglers and pirates who hid their contraband along the riverbank in nearby ‘Brandy Hole’

‘Brandy Hole’ whilst the area on the North Bank on the River Crouch previously belonged to the Manor of Hockley and was at the centre of the local salt making industry.

Before the coming of the rai lway to Rayleigh, Hullbridge’s wharfs were important to the distribution of various industrial commodities, in particular, Coal , Shale and later turning to Brick Making.

By the 1930’s the area had become popular as a weekend retreat destination for many families. Building plots were sold and holiday Bungalows were erected by local builders at a cost of £65 for basic structures, whilst more enterprising people brought in obsolete buses and trams to use as their accommodation.

Hullbridge is a beautiful medieval village and civil parish in the Rochford district of Essex. Bordered to the North by the River Crouch and within easy traveling distance of the nearby towns of both Hockley and Rayleigh.

The river and surrounding countryside is protected and maintained by the River Crouch Conservation Trust.

LOCATION

The village of Hullbridge was originally known as Whuolebrigg after the bridge that spanned the river during the medieval period. In the 17th Century the bridge famously collapsed and was subsequently replaced by a new local ferry service which ran up until the early 1900’s.

The stretch of river through the village was once a favourite haunt for smugglers and pirates who hid their contraband along the riverbank in nearby
