Local record

History of this pub

The Haywain was a purpose-built modern pub rather than an older inn converted to Beefeater use. CAMRA dates the building to 1995 and places it beside the A13 between London and Southend. Its record notes two equipped conference rooms, a beer garden and an adjoining Premier Inn, with Basildon town centre and Wat Tyler Country Park both nearby. The source does not give a more precise opening day.
