Enjoy a walk along the coast

30 May 2024

Ramblers can now enjoy an improved path on the scenic walk along the coastal path from historic Coalhouse Fort in East Tilbury to Stanford-le-Hope.

Thanks to funding and support from Historic England and Natural England, much-needed improvements have been made to the path after a fire in AugustĀ 2022 destroyed acres of natural habitat.

Improvements on the route include resurfacing the previously worn-down pathway and installing new fencing to protect surrounding wildlife.
