Family-friendly

Castledon covers the southern fringes of Wickford, named after Castledon Road. It's quieter and more spread out than the town centre, with a mix of 1960s and 70s housing and some newer estates. Not much in the way of local shops, so you're relying on Wickford high street or driving to the Mayflower Retail Park. Families with cars who want a bit more space end up here.
