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.

Preserved Southend Corporation bus in Point Road, Canvey
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.

Preserved Dart-Pointer bus in Point Road, Canvey
This is a preserved former Arriva Dennis Dart with Plaxton Pointer bodywork in a late version of the livery of Maidstone & District, a company whose operations were eventually absorbed into the Arriva empire in 1998. Over 7000 Dart-Pointers were produced in various forms during the last decade of the C20 and the first of the C21 making the type one of the most prolific models ever to have been manufactured. The building on the right 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.
