It was historically a rural parish in theBecontree HundredofEssex,stretching fromHainault Forestin the north to theRiver Thamesin the south. Dagenham remained mostly undeveloped until 1921, when theLondon County Councilbegan construction of the largeBecontreehousing estate. The population significantly increased as people moved to the new housing in the early 20th century, with the parish of Dagenham becoming Dagenham Urban District in 1926 and theMunicipal Borough of Dagenhamin 1938. In 1965 Dagenham became part ofGreater Londonwhen most of the historic parish become part of the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham.

Dagenham was chosen as a location for industrial activity and is perhaps most famous for being the location of theFord Dagenhammotor car plant where theFord sewing machinists strike of 1968took place. Following the decline of industry, the southern part of Dagenham adjacent to the River Thames forms part of theLondon Riversidesection of theThames Gatewayredevelopment area, with a new district ofBeam Parkunder construction on the former site of Ford Dagenham.[2]

Toponymy

edit

Dagenham first appeared in a document (asDæccanhaam) in a charter ofBarking Abbeydating from 666 AD (though alternative 7th century dates have been suggested for the charter). The name almost certainly originated with a small farmstead, the "ham" or farm of a man called Daecca, asDæccan hamminOld Englishmeanshome of a man called Dæcca.[3]The charter was made to reflect a transfer of land from Aethelred, kinsman ofKing Saebbi of Essex,to Barking Abbey.[4]

Manor of Barking

edit

Dagenham has been historically defined by itsancient parishboundaries. The parish of Dagenham was formed in the medieval period from part of the huge manor of Barking, which was owned by the Nunnery ofBarking Abbey.The Barking manor also includedBarkingandGreat Ilford,[4]which reversed the usual situation where a parish would be divided into one or more manors. As with other manors, the area held declined over time, and Barking Abbey was dissolved in 1539. The parish boundaries remained constant and were used to define Dagenham right up until theMunicipal Borough of Dagenhamwas abolished in 1965.

Pre-urban landscape

edit

Like most EssexThames-sideparishes, Dagenham was laid out on a N-S axis to give it a share of the marshes by the river, the agricultural land in the centre and the woods and commons on the poorer soils on the high ground in the north. Dagenham included a significant part of the now mostly lostHainault Forest.

Dagenham Breach

edit
Further information:Embanking of the tidal Thames § Stopping Dagenham Breach

South of Dagenham was a low-lying area including the Dagenham levels and Dagenham Marsh, these having been subject to periodic flooding from the Thames, and flood banks were built to protect the farmland, culminating in defences and a flood gate on the River Beam being built in the 17th century by Dutch engineers.[5]In 1707 an exceptionally high tide swept away fourteen feet of embankment and flooded over 1,000 acres of land, the description given byDaniel Defoewhen he visited eight years later giving the area inundated as being 5000 acres is today considered an exaggeration.[5]

The "Dagenham Breach" widened over time to a width of 400 feet, allowing the Thames to strip the top layer of marsh clay from the flood plain and deposited it as a mud bank in the Thames where it became a danger to shipping. Despite various remedies, the breach was not securely filled and a further flood occurred in 1718 after which, under an act of parliament, over £40,000 of public money was spent on successfully closing the breach[5]roughly at the location of Dagenham Dock. The closure of the gap left behind a large lake, also known as "Dagenham Breach" which became a popular spot for anglers. The lake is still there but much of it has silted up or been filled in and is now surrounded by industry,[6]but parts can still be identified as the lakes to the north of Ford's plant and also where Breach Lane follows the now lost western outline of the lake.

Whitebait Dinners

edit

Dagenham was formerly home to the famous annual whitebait feast. The custom appears to have been started by the King's Commissioner of Works to celebrate the closure of the breach in the seawall around 1714–20, and was held every subsequent spring, on or aroundTrinity Sunday.

Many years later,Sir Robert Preston MP,invited his friendGeorge Rosethe Secretary of the Treasury and others to celebrate the feast, and on another occasion Rose invited the Prime Minister,William Pitt.Thereafter it became an obligatory ritual of government for the entire cabinet to come to Dagenham and celebrate the security of the Thames and over time this simple but hearty meal based on Whitebait and local Essex Ale grew more lavish, including turtle, grouse, champagne and a range of other luxury food and drink. Eventually the cabinet tired of the long trip to Dagenham and moved the event toGreenwich.[7]

Economic development

edit

In 1931 theFord Motor Companyrelocated fromTrafford Parkin Manchester, to a larger newplant in Dagenham,which was already the location of supplier Briggs Motorway Bodies. A 500-acre (200 ha) riverside site was developed to become Europe's largest car plant, a vastvertically integratedsite with its ownblast furnacesand power station, importing iron ore and exporting finished vehicles. By the 1950s Ford had taken over Briggs at Dagenham and its other sites atDoncaster,Southampton,CroydonandRomford.At its peak the Dagenham plant had 4,000,000 square feet (370,000 m2) of floor space and employed over 40,000 people, although this number gradually fell during the final three decades of the 20th century as production methods advanced and Ford invested in other European factories as well. Some of Britain's best selling cars, including theFiesta,Escort,CortinaandSierra,were produced at the plant over the next 71 years.[8]

On 20 February 2002, full production was discontinued due to overcapacity in Europe and the relative difficulty of upgrading the ageing site compared with mostly newer European production facilities such asAlmussafes(Valencia,Spain) andCologne.Other factors leading to the closure of the Auto-assembly line were the need of the site for the new Diesel Centre of Excellence, which produces half of Ford's Diesel Engines worldwide, and the UK employment laws when compared to Spanish, German and Belgian laws.

In 2005 Cummins went into a joint venture and offered $15 million (US) to reinstate the factory. Ford and Cummins offered a good redundancy package, billed as one of the best in UK manufacturing. It is the location of theDagenham wind turbines.[9]Some 4,000 people now work at the Ford plant.[10]The movieMade in Dagenham(2010) is a dramatisation of the1968 Ford sewing machinists strikeat the plant, when female workers walked out in protest against sexual discrimination and unequal pay.

Sterling,who manufactured British Army weapons and Jaguar car parts, were also based in Dagenham until they went bankrupt in 1988.

Other industrial names once known worldwide wereEver Ready,whose batteries could be found in shops throughout theCommonwealth,Bergers Paintand the chemical firm ofMay & Bakerwho in 1935 revolutionized the production ofantibioticswith their synthetic sulfa-drug known asM&B 693.The May & Baker plant, owned and run bySanofi-Aventis,occupied a 108-acre site in Rainham Road South, nearDagenham East Underground station.It was abandoned in 2013 when the company closed it. BeFirst, a company working on behalf of the council, began to redevelop the site for commercial opportunities. It is now theLondon East Business and Technical Park.NTT have their London1 data centre on this site, and the Eastbrook Studios is currently under construction.

Local government

edit

Dagenham was an ancient, and later civil, parish in theBecontree hundredofEssex.[11]TheMetropolitan Police Districtwas extended in 1840 to include Dagenham. The parish formed part of theRomford Rural Districtfrom 1894.[12][13]Dagenham Parish Council offices were located on Bull Street.

The expansion of the Greater London conurbation into the area caused the review of local government structures, and it was suggested in 1920 that the Dagenham parish should be abolished and its area divided betweenIlford Urban DistrictandBarking Town Urban District.[14]Separately, the London County Council proposed that its area of responsibility should be expanded beyond theCounty of Londonto cover the area.[15]Instead, in 1926 the Dagenham parish was removed from the Romford Rural District and designated as anurban district.[12]In 1938, in further recognition of its development, Dagenham became amunicipal borough.[16]In 1965 theMunicipal Borough of Dagenhamwas abolished and its former area became part of theLondon Borough of Barking,[17]which was renamed Barking and Dagenham in 1980.[18]For elections to the Greater London Council, Dagenham was part of theBarkingelectoral division until 1973 and then theDagenhamelectoral division until 1986.

Market gardens to suburban estate

edit
Thechurch of St Peter and St Paulformed the heart of the former village

In 1205 Dagenham was large enough to have a chaplain, and theParish Church of St Peter and St Paulwas probably built at around that time.[19]In 1854, theLondon, Tilbury and Southend Railwaywas built through the south of Dagenham, near the River Thames. In 1885 a new direct route from Barking to Pitsea, via Upminster, was built withDagenhamstation opened just north of the village.Dagenham Dockstation opened on the original southern route in 1908. Dagenham was still an undeveloped village, when building of the vastBecontreeestate by theLondon County Councilbegan in the early 1920s.[20]The building of the enormous council estate, which also spread into the neighbouring parishes ofIlfordandBarking,[14]caused a rapid increase in population.[21]In 1932 the electrifiedDistrict lineof theLondon Undergroundwas extended toUpminsterthrough Dagenham with stations opened asDagenhamandHeathwayand today calledDagenham EastandDagenham Heathway.[22]Dagenham East was the location of theDagenham East rail crashin 1958.[23]Services on the London Tilbury & Southend line at Dagenham East were withdrawn in 1962.

Governance

edit

The 2010 wards of Eastbrook, Heath, River, Village and Whalebone are in theDagenham and Rainham Parliamentary Constituency.The 2010 wards of Alibon, Mayesbrook, Parsloes, Thames and Valence are in theBarking Parliamentary Constituency.Each ward in B&D elects two or three councillors toBarking and Dagenham London Borough Council.The whole area is within theCity and East London Assembly Constituency.

Geography

edit
TheRiver Beamin the south of Dagenham

Dagenham is located approximately 11.5 miles (18.5 km) east ofCharing Crossin Central London. TheBecontreeestate is largely in the pre-1965 borough of Dagenham, which also includedBecontree Heath,part ofRush Green,Old Dagenham village, and the southern section aroundDagenham Dockand adjacent to theRiver Thames.This southern section, which includesFord Dagenham,is part of theLondon Riversidesection of theThames Gatewayredevelopment zone.

The Dagenhampost townincludes the whole of the Becontree estate, including those sections that were in the former (pre 1965) boroughs of Barking and Ilford. Parts of the former borough of Dagenham – part of Chadwell Heath, part of Collier Row and part of Rush Green – are in the Romford Post town. It is adjacent toBarkingto the west,Romfordto northeast andHornchurchto the east.Dagenham Dockon the River Thames is to the south.

Demography

edit

Dagenham is a working class area. During the 2000s there was a large influx of migrants, in particular Africans.[24]The current population of the former (pre 1965) Borough of Dagenham could be approximated from the population of the current wards which together most closely match the area, but the former boundary between the borough and neighbouring Barking, with which it merged in 1965, no longer corresponds to any ward boundaries.

At the time of the 2011 census, the Alibon ward (north of Heathway station) was 61% White British and 15% Black African.[25]Goresbrook ward (southwest from Heathway) was 57% White British and 17% Black African.[26]River ward (south of Heathway) was 51% White British and 19% Black African.[27]Village ward (east from Heathway) was 58% White British and 19% Black African.[28]Eastbrook ward (around Eastbrookend Country Park) was 69% White British and 11% Black African.[29]Heath ward (north of Heathway) was 60% White British and 17% Black African.[30]

Culture

edit

Valence House,in Becontree Avenue, is the only surviving of the five manor houses of Dagenham.[36] Dating back to the 13th century, it is sited in parkland and there is a moat around part of it. Valence House is the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham's local history museum, displaying artifacts and archives that tell the story of the lives of the people of Barking and Dagenham. The collection also includes portraits, family papers and other mementos of the Fanshawe family, who occupiedParsloes Manor,since demolished, from the sixteenth century.[37] The Fanshawe collection is "one of the best collections of gentry portraits in the country and is of international importance", according to Valence House.[38] Among members of the Fanshawe family was the diplomatSir Richard Fanshawe, 1st Baronet,whose portrait is at Valence House. Nine successive members of the Fanshawe family served asRemembrancerto the Crown, following Henry Fanshawe's appointment to the position byQueen Elizabeth Iin 1566. The appointment made possible the family's rise to prominence.

In the post town of Romford and the pre-1965 borough of Dagenham, on the corner of Whalebone Lane and the Eastern Avenue, diagonally opposite theMoby-Dickpublic house, is the site of Marks Manor House, a large 15th-century moated building demolished in the early 19th century. DuringWorld War IIthe adjoining fields were used by theRoyal Artilleryfor an anti-aircraft battery; later aprisoner-of-war campfor Germans was erected there. Further south down Whalebone Lane on the corner of the High Road is the Tollgate pub. This stands on the site of themilestonewhich marked the ten miles (16 km) limit from theCity of Londonand theturnpiketoll-gate.

The Roundhousepublic house on the junction of Porters Avenue and Lodge Avenue (in the pre-1965 borough of Barking) became eastern Greater London's premier rock-music venue between 1969 and 1975, incorporating theVillage Blues Club.Notable performers at the pub includedJethro Tull,Supertramp,Queen,Pink Floyd,Eric Clapton,Status Quo,andLed Zeppelin(on 5 April 1969). TheEastbrookis aGrade II* listedpub.[39]Given the influence of U.S. blues on the English musicians who played at the Roundhouse, journalistNik Cohncalled the London of the late 1960s and early 1970s the "Dagenham Delta".[40]
