On Friday 6th July the Olympic Torch will leave Southend at 10.55am. It will be carried through Southend coming up Chalkwell Avenue and then proceed along the London Road (A13). We are told that the torch will be taken down to Hadleigh Farm, the venue for the mountain biking event and ridden around the track before then going on to Basildon.
Leigh-on-Sea has seen many changes over the past seventy years. From a small fishing village before the war, it has blossomed into a bustling commuter town, spreading it’s boundaries to encompass parts of Prittlewell and Eastwood.
