Thorney Bay, Canvey Island
For some reason the seaward face of the sea wall is painted white around the bay, and has been for some years - a view in 1993 shows this.

Canvey Island: Thorneycreek Fleet reedbed
Successive editions of old large scale Ordnance Survey maps have shown a pond that has progressively decreased in size in this location. The latest satellite imagery shows that the pond has now silted up entirely, and this extensive and ecologically important reedbed has now colonized the whole site.
The Thorneycreek Fleet pumping station building with its green door, from near which Image was taken, is just visible to the far right of the photograph.

Canvey Island: Thorneycreek Fleet
Thorneycreek Fleet is one of the main natural drains on Canvey Island. This is the view from the Thorney Bay Pumping Station where excess water is pumped out through the sea defence wall into the Thames estuary. Old Victorian Ordnance Survey maps show it as Thornycreek Fleet, without the "e", with a discharge into Thorny Bay.
