You step out of the cruise terminal into a harbour of steel—container cranes like slow-moving machines and the Thames pressing east toward the North Sea. Your chauffeur waits inside the terminal with a nameboard, luggage handled, and a vehicle warmed for the ride. The road from Tilbury slices inland past reclaimed marshes and the historic ramparts of a defensive fort, shifting maritime industry into suburban West London.
