OUR pub nostalgia continues to cause a real stir. Tendring CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale) member Mick Hearn dropped us a line after enjoying last week s spread on former Clacton and Walton venues. He said he loves reminiscing but is always saddened to read about once-popular pubs disappearing from the north Essex landscape. Mr Hearn has dipped into his own photo archive to send us these brilliant pictures, all from Clacton and surrounding Tendring villages. Who remembers Warwick Castle, in Old Road? It once stood on the site of the current Aldi store. Or maybe you enjoyed a tipple at The Marine, in Rosemary Road, or The Burrsville Arms, in Burrs Road, Great Clacton.

Covid-19 has taken a terrible toll on life, businesses and liberties. But amid the tragedies, there has also been stories of hope and of the heart of communities beating stronger than ever. The country was first plunged into a nationwide lockdown on March 23, meaning people couldn’t leave their homes unless it was essential. But this was just the beginning as hundreds of thousands of people went on to catch the virus and more than 70,000 people have lost their lives in the UK, with the death toll still rising. There have also seen thousands of cases across north Essex and hundreds of deaths.
