Hedingham 818 1836hrs Colchester to Clacton-on-Sea 140818
Having arrived in Colchester, in this view Hedingham’s former Metrobus Scania N94UD East Lancs Omnidekka type number 818 is captured about to depart from the stop on Head Street with the above short working of service X76 to Clacton. Prior to the introduction of the Colchester clockwise gyratory one way system, Head Street, like many others, was two way and although I have been back during the intervening period, it is now more than fifty years since I regularly alighted here when travelling to school. This side of Head Street has been largely untouched and the old buildings, housing shops and offices, remain. However, a section of the opposite side, behind the camera, has been much altered following construction of the Culver Square Shopping Centre.
Some shots from a day trip by Bus, Ferry and Foot along parts of the Essex Coast from the River Colne to the estuary of the Rivers Stour and Orwell.
