North Shoebury


North Shoebury is a district and former village in the north-east of Southend-on-Sea in the English county of Essex.
North Shoebury was once an ecclesiastical parish. The 1870-2 gazetteer entry reads:
North Shoebury was, until 1 October 1933, additionally a civil parish; on this date it was abolished and administration split between Southend-on-Sea and Great Wakering parishes.
To this day, there is still a divide between North and South Shoeburyness, the South of the town has the Garrison and the industrial estates, while the North has the Shoeburyness High School and an Asda supermarket. North Shoeburyness is also home to West Road shopping centre.
