 Cascade and paddling pool, Kiddiesland, East Mersea.
Kiddiesland was built by Mr F. Ingram from Potters Bar to give holidays to poor children from London. It was opened in 1936. After WW2, it became as the Youth Camp and then Essex Outdoors. 

This saltwater swimming pool was on the beach and with erosion, has now all vanished.
