Memory Benches | Marine Parade, Leigh on Sea (Part 1)

There are twenty one benches with memorial plaques along Marine Parade between Tattersall Gardens and Thames Drive.

Following the map below from left to right, the first bench is situated on its own, overlooking a view of Hadleigh Castle. There are then four benches walking from Tattersall Gardens towards Marine Close and one nicely kept bench set slightly on its own. Coming up to Marine Close, there are two benches facing out towards Southend followed by one facing in towards Hadleigh, then another facing back out. There are then six benches which start opposite Marine Close, on the way to Belton Way West, followed by the last five as the walk come up to the traffic lights.
