Butlin's Clacton was a holiday camp located in Clacton-on-Sea in England.
Clacton-on-Sea is the largest town on the Tendring Peninsula in Essex and was founded in 1871.
After gaining the support of the local council, construction began and the camp opened on 11 June 1938.
Clacton was originally planned to be used as a POW camp, but it was spared this indignity and was used as a training site for the pioneer corps.
Atlas Park only lasted a year and the land was then sold and redeveloped with housing.
