Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Shoebury: High Street level crossing This level crossing allows trains access to and from MOD Pig's Bay. The railway line starts in the sidings to the west of Shoeburyness station, swings around the south side of the station, before crossing Shoebury High Street here. One of the uses of the MOD base is for the storage of withdrawn rolling stock prior to scrapping.

The London Tilbury and Southend Railway reached Shoeburyness in 1884 and the level crossing is already shown in the Ordnance Survey map edition of 1898.

From a Geograph aspect the railway track lines up almost exactly with the 185000 Northing grid line. The detail beyond the level crossing is in TQ9484.
