Coalhouse Fort, East Tilbury Village

Many people have seen and heard ghosts at this dogging area and the Fort has featured on TV's Most Haunted program. The place has got a spooky feel to it, which just adds to the excitement! There's good night time action after dusk, especially in and around the old WW2 concrete out buildings near the river. The car park is locked at night, but you can park along the road just before the church (about 50 meters before the car park entrance). There is public right of way (on foot) 24/7 in the Forts grounds and along the river Thames footpath, so there is no problem there. Park up and walk down to the entrance and follow the footpath in front of you (keeping the Fort to the left of you, the path bears round to the right, then straightens up). Before you get to the river you'll see the concrete out buildings on your left. You should meet up with like minded people along there most nights. Have fun!
