There used to be end-of-Pier amusements, before they burnt down. There also used to be a big amusement park called The Kursaal, a little way along the front, which must have been somewhat similar to Blackpool Pleasure Beach in its prime. The front entrance building of that is still there, but they built residential properties all over the rest of it. I remember going there in it’s final days, when just a small ride area was left. There was a wild mouse coaster, a rotor, a calypso, maybe a couple of other things. By that time, it was a sad mess. Southend has a lot of history when it comes to amusements.
