Danielle Belton is the new Conservative leader of Rochford District Council after the Liberal Democrats and Non-Aligned Group, which formed the previous administration, stepped back. Cllr Belton, is now the first female leader of the council, which is now back in the control of the Conservatives two years after the party was voted out.

Plans have been submitted to build 325 “high-quality” new homes on a number of fields in Wickford. Gleeson Land and Avant Homes are working on the proposals, which also include public open space, children’s play areas, and wildlife areas. The development is on a plot off Oak Crescent and very close to Barn Hall Recreational Ground. The initial plans include a mix of one, two, three, and four-bedroom homes, with up to 50 per cent of the homes being ‘affordable’.

By now lots will know but I am leaving @Essex_Echo this week. It's been almost eight years with many good times. It's been a massive part of my life in many ways and there are too many people to thank and message. Here's to the good times. Pic - Echo and Gaz De Vere https://t.co/ewnWgpGXML
