As November arrives and Remembrance season begins, the heart of Hockley Village has once again come alive with a stunning tribute of red. Over the weekend, visitors to the Village shopping area were greeted by an extraordinary sight, thousands of hand-knitted poppies cascading across railings, fences, and shopfronts.
This Christmas, Amos Estates in Spa Road are joining forces with Kinder Essex to support two heartfelt community projects. Together, we’re helping bring comfort, connection and kindness to those who may feel lonely or isolated during the festive season.
If you want to move in 2026, positioning yourself as a serious buyer is essential. Here’s how to put yourself ahead of the competition and be taken seriously by sellers.
This year’s Remembrance displays have been extra special for all of us at Amos Estates. It marks ten years since we first began our poppy project, and what started as a small local tribute has grown into a proud community tradition. With displays across Hockley, Thundersley Village, Thundersley Common, and Hadleigh War Memorial.
