Tilbury Fort was built in the late 17th century to prevent hostile ships from sailing up the Thames and is one of the finest surviving examples of a low-profiled artillery fort in the country. There had been an earlier fort at Tilbury in Tudor times and it was near here that Elizabeth I gave her famous Armada speech to the troops. This guidebook provides the visitor with a guided tour of Tilbury Fort, a fascinating history of the site and an insight into the lives of the soldiers garrisoned here.
