Dist:0.6km<br/>Waterloo Road is in Cambridge Town. Nowadays Cambridge Town merges into the built-up area of Thorpe Bay and the rest of the conurbation of Southend-on-Sea, but looking at old Ordnance Survey maps of the Victorian period the isolation of the settlement and its role in providing accommodation to civilian workers for the military garrison at Shoeburyness is quite evident. Waterloo Road does not appear in the Ordnance Survey map of 1898 although the next street to the south, once Grove Road, but now Chelmer Road, is shown.

Dist:0.8km<br/>The church is in St Andrew's Road. It is not shown on the Ordnance Survey map edition of 1898, but the records of the church in the National Archives date from 1899, so it is reasonable to assume that the church dates from this time.
