The Parish of Langdon Hills was once part of Orsett Rural
District. The Orsett Rural District was formed in 1894 and survived to 1936. In 1934 parts of
Langdon Hills were removed and became part of the new Billericay Urban District. The remainder
of Langdon Hills, in 1936, became part of the newly formed Thurrock Urban District, now known
as Thurrock, a unitary authority with borough status. |
