Upminster, Essex.wmv

I had 5 minutes before the 5.34 train to Shoeburyness, and the thought occurred to me: Not many films of Upminster on You Tube!
This is the view from outside the c2c railway station at Upminster in Essex, England.
Hornchurch has a wonderful church with a tall spire, the 'international' viewers may like to know that there is a 'war grave' there, where amongst various British and Commonwealth airman there also lies the American pilot, Sanders-Draper, killed whilst flying a Spitfire in the Royal Air Force.

Crazy. It hasn't been long but it's changed so much

[@harryfaber]

There is no chance for me to go an remake this video, maybe you could and show us the changes?

Carnt find an Upminster in Essex, but there is an Upminster in London. Its on the District Line and London Overground.

[@domputer638]

There is no Upminster in Essex which is why you couldn't find it. Upminster, London is very real though.

[@Sillimant_]

Care to explain why my post says Essex and not London then?

@@Sillimant_ it is in the historic county of essex, so many consider upminster to still be in essex. legally it is not anymore though.

'Zig Zag' lines either side of a pedestrian crossing, mean no parking/overtaking and such. The approach to crossings are a bit 'sacred' in England, too many pedestrians get knocked down by impatient motorists.

[@deathrider1974]

what is the meaning of the squiggly lines on the road we dont have that here?

[@ashleyfearon4121]

It’s a warning to drivers that a pedestrian crossing is there so prepare to let people cross.
