They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

Drawing of St Catherine's Church, East Tilbury, sits next to Coalhouse Fort. This old drawing records a period after the church had a tower.
Thanks to Thurrock Museum for the image.
