Standford Le Hope and Corringham carnival – Today

I thought I was going mad when I was told today was the carnival in Stanford Le Hope, we have already had one this year. Not a town to do things by halves, today is the date of their second one!

So, a change of plans for us, we are not hotfooting it down to Southend, but staying local and supporting our local events, although we may pop down to see the fireworks at Southend this evening.

The procession will set off from the Giffords Cross Open Space in Park Road, Corringham at 1.30pm and end at the Mobil Field in Billet Lane, Stanford-le-Hope.  There will also be a fete taking place on the Mobil Field from 1.30.

Having left Park Road the route will take in Springhouse Road, into Gordon Road and up to Southend Road. From there it will travel along Third Avenue and into Branksome Avenue, then heading along First Avenue and Dunstable Road and then back to Southend Road.

Having proceeded underneath the Manorway, the procession will head down Stanford-le-Hope Street High Street, turn left into Corringham Road, Rainbow Lane and finally Billet Lane.

Looks like a good afternoon, see you there?
