Grays

The manor of Thurrock was granted to Henry de Grai by Richard the Lionheart in 1195. In those early days, fishing was the local industry, but later Grays became renowned as a cement and brick making centre. To the west is the popular Lakeside Shopping Centre and Europe’s longest cables-stayed bridge.
