Truck Stop (Thurrock Services)
A spectrum of Trucks from all around Europe parked at Thurrock Services. The Dartford Crossing (Tunnels & Bridge) is only a couple of km away. This point in the river has been a favoured crossing point for hundreds of years local lore has it that some of the Pilgrim Fathers crossed the river by ferry nearby on their way south in the 17th Century.
