The Essex Coast
Tilbury to Fingringhoe, Leigh-on-Sea, to Burnham-on-Crouch.
Overview
From Tilbury to Fingringhoe, Leigh-on-Sea to Burnham-on-Crouch, this travelogue paints an appealing landscape vision of the eastern countyβs coastline. Sponsored by Shell, its impressive production values demonstrate how, even as late as 1977, and when destined mainly for the educational market, industrial films still maintained high artistic standards.
