I lived in this pub from 1953 to
1964;I was nine months old when my parents took over. It was a wonderful
place to grow up in. The farm next door was run by WG Gay & Sons and as soon
as I could walk I was over there playing. I drove past The Farm House just
before Christmas 2012; what a mess it looked! Some great big white igloo
monstrosity in the back garden. The farm has gone as well which does suppise
me as there were at least two big Essex barns there. Also at the side of the
Farm House Tavern was a massive Nissan shed, this was used to house Italian
prisoners of war. |

As a child I would cycle to the Chase to go
fishing. I recall that next to this pub, about 1950 or so, were the remains
of a crashed aeroplane (wheels etc) and a number of cows skulls. These
animals remains looked like the plane had crashed into a herd. |
