The Memories of Clary Swann - Page 13 The war ends and The Casino is up and running again. The ballroom gets a makeover with a new floor, and (well known locally) a big glittering ball hanging from the centre of the ceiling. There were now 1000's of visitors to Canvey seafront with an astonishing (for that time) several hundred cars parked in the surrounding area. The Monico was eventually sold to Charringtons Brewery in 1946.
In 1948 John Austin (Manager of The Casino since it
opened) dies and Clary Swann after his war service and working in
the background of both The Monico and The Casino takes on the position
of Manager of The Casino. |
