Canvey Island: Gafzelle Drive
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.

Canvey Island: Kismet Park Dyke
The photographer does not know the formal name of this dyke but it does run along the eastern side of Kismet Park and excess water is pumped out into the Thames estuary by the St Anne's Pumping Station which is behind him. Although the dyke runs in a concrete conduit, old maps show that historically, and certainly before there was any residential development, there has always been a drain along this route.

Canvey Island: The Admiral Jellicoe
This huge estate public house has been a fixture on Canvey Island since the 1930s, and was for many years the only hotel on the island. Indeed the 1956 Ordnance Survey map actually describes it as such.
This was the local and regular haunt of the utterly underrated Dr Feelgood band, and the cover photo of their 5th album, Be Seeing You, released in 1977, featuring Lee and the rest of the group, (but not Wilko Johnson who had just very recently left the group), was taken in the public bar.
