This 1937 photograph print, titled 'Port of London Authority - Map' by an unknown artist, offers a fascinating glimpse into the bustling maritime activity at Tilbury on the River Thames in Essex, England during the 1930s. The image, taken from Alan Bell's book 'The Said Noble River,' showcases a panoramic view of the port, with its intricate network of docks, railway station, passenger landing stage, cargo jetty, lock, and basin. The docks, a hub of trade and transportation, are filled with cargo ships and freight yards, where goods from around the world were imported and exported. The railway station, a vital link to the rest of the country, is situated nearby, allowing for seamless transfer of goods between water and land. The passenger landing stage, a popular destination for travelers, is also visible, adding to the port's importance as a transportation hub. The jetty, with its large cargo cranes, is a testament to the industrial might of the port, capable of handling massive volumes of freight. The lock and basin, essential for the passage of ships between the Thames and the North Sea, are also clearly depicted. The photograph provides a colorful and detailed representation of the Port of London Authority during the 20th century, a time when the River Thames played a crucial role in Britain's trade and transportation network. The image is a captivating reminder of the rich history and significance of this iconic location.
