Thank you for this walk down memory lane, used to watch Morgan & Dean In the tute on a sunday night when I was a kid, Born and raised Dock Rd, Rest in peace Ronnie Charles Barnes 1927-2002 / Iris Catherine Alice Barnes 1929 - 2022 / Ronda Camilla Barnes 1967 - 2023 ❤

Those maisonettes in Sydney Road look familiar. I lived there from 1968-72 in a maisonette run by the electricity board as dad worked at both Tilbury ‘A’ & ‘B’ Power Stations. The Stella Maris seamen’s mission was adjacent.

Used to sail out of Tilbury had some good runs ashore and a few tear ups with the locals(until they found out I was ⚒️) got on well from then on used to go out with the Skins. Harry Potters Tattoo studio and the seaman’s mission great times there sadly no British crewed ships sailing out of there any more

Brilliant work. Should be taught in the schools of our local history

I remember Buddy Goyette his wife Ivey and there son Paul a couple of years older than me. A lovely family liked by everyone. Buddy was a man to aspire to be like as he was always working hard but had so much to show for his labours. His son Paul was also hard working and nearly made it into professional football.

I remember camping out at the moat at Tilbury fort.We would sit up Around the fire,nearly all night, waiting to catch a glimpse of the WOMAN IN WHITE ON HER HORSE.A ghost apparently.though we saw nothing,we shit each other up instead.GREAT DAYZ!!.LOVE TT

How about Adelaide road please?

Raised in West Tilbury..

Loved it so many memories

The bit that talks about Malto road actually shows footage of Bermuda road, Nice video though.

By the way I lived in poynder until I was 11 then moved to thackeray so I'm a tilbury lol

I grew up in tilbury and had a lot of fun with friend when the days was you could go out alday with friends and there was no worries the amount of times we used to go as the fields to go to the fort lol they were the good day but now all you have is the docks expanding on them fields

Brilliant mate, I was a Tilbury boy lived there from 1960 to 1998 - Perth House, Kipling Avenue, South View Avenue, Adelaide Road and finally Wellington Rd featured in the footage here and this is how I remember Tilbury being. You've even got footage of the Railway cottages - Had a mate who used to live there called Tom Web - must have been about 1965-66 we used to go over the footbridge and have tea round his house.

so there is a road called adelaide, sydney, wellington etc , there is a tasmainia +perth house, but you dont think melbourne is connected ?

This is a great collection of footage. Very well done. I was resident in Sydney Road, Tilbury from 1968-72 (at 2:05, the maisonettes at the far end past Perth House). Everything and everywhere looks so familiar. Civic Square, the Fire Station, Calcutta Road, Tilbury Riverside, the lot.

Oh yeah and a mate of mine lived in the Railway cottages mentioned right at the the start, I must have been about 5 years old and used to go over a footbridge just down the road from Tilbury hospital on St Andrews road and have tea at his house. They must have been knocked down in about 65/66? His name was Tom Webb.

Gutted you didn't have old pic's of Kipling Avenue! Live there from 65-70, then moved to South View Avenue 70-74, then Adelaide Rod 74-79 and then the masionettes in Wellington Rd, 79-87. Live in Perth house as well early 60's.

Whoa this is amazing! The old pictures, the stories from the elders and seeing Tilbury as it is now. I lived there from 1960-1987 and my Dads family lived in and around the area for years before. Annie Obrien - can I ask you questions - I've got so many to ask you?
