About
Silver End
Silver End is a village and civil parish between Witham and Braintree, in Essex, England. It was conceived in the 1920s as a model village by the industrialist Francis Henry Crittall, whose works at Braintree manufactured metal windows. At Silver End he established a further Crittall Windows factory and homes for its workers, including residences for its managers designed by Scottish modernist architect Thomas Tait, and ancillary buildings including the largest village hall in Britain.
