Tilbury Civic Square and War Memorial
The buildings to the left are Thurrock Council offices. The square also boasts the fire station police station and a sports centre. The war memorial inscription reads "May Justice Mercy & Peace Prevail Amongst Nations". I will second that, there is nothing glorious about being dead in my opinion.

Tilbury Police Station
When first built the new police station in Tilbury was bare concrete; I don't know when it was painted a rather sweet sky blue with dark blue detailing, but I suppose it does make it look a little bit less like a Soviet prison.

St Johns Church. Dock Rd.Tilbury. Essex Pre 1920
A very brief history - it was built in 1902. At the end of WWI, the roof was removed as it was causing the Church to subside. The vicarage was built some time in the 1920s, and is still used by the current Vicar (Father Tim Codling). In the 1960s, a Church hall was added (as per the second picture), by the then Vicar (Father Tony Hickey).
Apparently, the altar was originally at the other end of the Church, with a triptych painting donated by P&O (then connected with the Docks) after two of their sailors drowned. The altar was later moved to the other end (though I don't know when), and the painting moved to the Lady's chapel. In 2002, a new stained glass window was put in.

Tilbury Docks church
The Church of St. John the Baptist was opened in 1904 with a considerably higher and more ornate roof. Because of foundation problems, the heavy upper part of the church and roof were removed some years later. A replacement lighter roof was built below the level of the clerestory seen here. A further much later modification was to raise the roof a little to enable the clerestory. The various states of the church may be seen at https://www.tilburyandchadwellmemories.org.uk/content/places/churches_and_cemeteries_in_tilbury_and_chadwell/st_john_the_baptist_dock_road_tilbury
