The building on the left is the former Canvey & District (latterly Eastern National) bus depot which now houses the Castle Point Transport Museum on whose annual Open Day this picture was taken. The bus is a former London Transport Daimler CWA6 built 1944 and acquired by Southend Corporation in 1953 for trolleybus replacement. Its Massey body is newer than its chassis having been fitted just before the bus went into service at Southend.
