This is the intriguingly named Gafzelle Drive viewed from the top of the sea defence wall. The Canvey Community Archive website http://canveyisland.org/page_id__1140_path__0p2p30p.aspx has several images of Gafzelle Drive taken during a freshwater flood event in 1968, some 15 years after the catastrophic seawater flood and inundation of Canvey Island in 1953.
