Coal House Fort is situated nearby East Tilbury Docks, a coastal fort for the defence of the Thames leading into the capital. The Fort has seen a lot of action, especially the first and second world wars.
Blue, red and black uniforms have been worn at the fort, each denoting a particular arm, gunnery, infantry and engineering.
I was expecting some activity, and was not disapointed.
On return from the car park after waiting a little while for late comers, I approached the entrance way into the inner fort, and saw before me the glint of a bright torch light moving closer towards my direction. No doubt someone coming to find me and continue with the nights proceedings - yet on rounding the corner, there was no one to be seen...... everyone I discovered were in the base room having a health and safety talk by the fort staff prior to starting a brief history tour - who therefore was responsible for the torch light I saw so clearly......
