Yes! I remember the barbers shop to the South of Laindon Railway bridge. I belive the shop was previously run by Charlie Franta(?) who was a traditional barber. There is no doubt that Peter Grimwood was the 1st barber in the area with style. I recall that when Peter and Ivan gave up hairdressing in Basildon they took over the Windmill Pub/Restaurant at Hanningfield and then moved on to the larger and more up-market Orsett Hall.
