These childrens rides have been adorning Canvey seafront since 1946. Affectionally called the Casino Horses because it was outside the Casino that the horses stood until the Casino was demolished. Ridden by hundreds of children and until this week (2010) were still being used.
These horses are also featured in the Dr Feelgood film 'Oil City Confidential'.
