Robert Hallmann's Photo Gallery

A collection by this local Historian & Author
By David Bullock

Thanks to CCA member Robert Hallmann for making these photographs available, originally on CanveyIsland.org.uk. They were taken in the 1980's and show how much has changed in the small amount of time since.

Robert Hallmann is a local author who has published historical books on Essex, South Benfleet and recently the informative "Canvey Island - A History".
