About Gravesend

A historic river gateway, covered door to door

Gravesend sits on the south bank of the Thames, roughly 21 miles south-east of central London, directly opposite Tilbury in Essex. For centuries it served as the point where ships heading to or from the Port of London would take on pilots and customs officers, making it the historic gateway to the capital by water. The town's best-known story is that of Pocahontas, the Powhatan woman who travelled to England and died here in 1617; she was buried at St George's Church, and a statue in the town now commemorates her.

A passenger ferry still crosses the river to Tilbury, continuing a link that predates the modern Dartford Crossing by centuries. Gravesend is the principal town of the Borough of Gravesham, and RushXO covers it thoroughly from our nearby Dartford base.
