Summary edit

Description
English: Quay at Horrid Hill Horrid Hill was an island until a causeway was built to allow a small horse-drawn railway to carry wagonloads of chalk, quarried from Twydall chalk pit, to the cement works. Warship hulks containing French prisoners of war were moored here during the Napoleonic Wars. It is now part of Riverside Country Park. On the horizon, beyond Nor Marsh are the storage tanks of the disused oil refinery, cranes at Thamesport and Grain Power Station.
