The Double Six stood on the corner of Whitmore Way and The
Hatherley. It was well known as a music venue where any number of local bands and artists
graced its stage as well as those from further afield. Strippers were even known to do a turn
there back in the 1980s. For a time during the 1980s it was known as the Flying Childers (after the famous thoroughbred horse, 1714-1741). The former 3 times (1973, 1974 and 1977) Grand National horse race winner 'Red Rum' appeared at the re-opening ceremony to mark the change of name, but this was short lived and it had reverted back to its original name at the time of closure in the early 2000s. Following closure, the building was put up for sale as building land, and following a fire, was fenced off from the road and finally demolished in 2003, with the site being cleared for development. Residential flats were then built in its place. Text written 2005 with revisions 2005-2008. Copyright © 2005-2008, Basildon History Online. All rights reserved. |
