About Thames

Thames lies in east London along the Thames Estuary, where urban development meets the river's industrial corridor. Reach it via the A13 from central London or connect from the M25 orbital motorway to the north. The area sits within Barking and Dagenham, close to London City Airport and major shipping routes. Thames uniquely positions itself where massive cargo vessels still navigate toward Tilbury Docks.
