Tilbury Urban District : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tilbury
Tilbury is a town in the borough of Thurrock, Essex, England. It was established in the late nineteenth century, on land that was mainly part of Chadwell St Mary. It contains a 16th-century fort and an ancient cross-river ferry. Tilbury has a major deep-water port which contributes to the local economy. ==Etymology== The name of the present town of Tilbury is derived (by way of the port) from the nearby settlements of East and West Tilbury. The name of these settlements is derived from the Saxon ''burgh'', "fortified place", either belonging to Tila, or perhaps at a lowland place.〔James Kemble, ''Essex Place-Names'' (Historical Publications, 2007)〕 The 8th century spelling (Bede) was "Tilaburg", and the spelling in Domesday was "Tilberia".〔(London Thames Gateway Forum )〕
