This is Ford Place it is the only non-ecclesiastical grade one listed building in Thurrock. It has been derelict since a disastrous fire in the 1980’s. This conflagration was supposedly caused by children ghost hunting in the empty building. Unfortunately the internal wooden panelling that was one of the main reasons for the listing was destroyed.
