South Fambridge

[1] On 1 April 1946 the parish was abolished and merged with Ashingdon.

[2] The village once had a small airfield which no longer exists, having been converted into a residential estate named Pemberton Field after Noel Pemberton Billing.

On 20 February 2009 it was the 100th anniversary of the first experimental flights beside the River Crouch meadows.

A Spitfire flown by Carolyn Grace took part in the Anniversary Commemoration, entertaining the crowd by carrying out some aerobatic manoeuvres.
