Captured fighter plane

Probably an unusual question this? Not sure if anyone one could help me but here goes....

I recall my late father telling me that during the early part of Battle of Britain an enemy fighter (or possibly a bomber) had been shot down/captured and put on display in the Southend area? My father was with the sea cadets at the time befiore joining up but remembered the aircraft attracting quite a crowd of onlookers.

Would anyone know anything about this? I will check the local historical archives for the area of Southend too.
