History

Nobes' Tomb (or mausoleum) is located near Tomb Farm in Upper Basildon. It is now a ruin, but was regarded at one stage as being cursed, with any man who destroyed Nobes' grave being cursed. In the early 20th century, the expression "There goes Nobes on his white horse!" was commonly used. A second ghost is Nan Carey, who haunts Nan Carey's Hill, a cross roads at Upper Basildon.[2]

In old times, Basildon Revel was held from the 20th-25th July on Upper Basildon Green.[2]
