Canvey Island North

SS8 7 / SS8 8 / SS8 9

Family-friendly

The north side of the island, closest to Benfleet and the road bridge off Canvey. This is the part most people see first when they arrive. Slightly more convenient for commuters since you can get to Benfleet station without crossing the whole island, though the bridge road backs up badly at rush hour. Housing is similar bungalow stock to everywhere else on the island. Some of the newer builds are concentrated up here.
