Despite the first new houses built being occupied by 1951,
it was not until August 1952 that the first new shops opened at Pendle Drive on the Fryerns
estate. Other early examples were the regional shopping centre or neighbourhood centre at Whitmore Way and at Timberlog Lane at the junction with Long Riding. In the 1950s other Pantry shops were also provided at Church Road, Vange and Luncies Road on the Barstable estate. During these times the existing shops at Laindon, Pitsea and Vange often provided the main source for provisions for the early new town residents. Text written 2005 with revisions 2005-2007.
