JOHN LAING PLC. A view of the cooling water intake caisson for Coryton Oil Refinery leaving Tilbury Dock to begin its journey down the Thames.

This 4,200 ton concrete water intake caisson was built along the lines of the Mulberry harbour and was towed 8 miles down the Thames from Tilbury Dock to be installed as part of Coryton Oil Refinery on the 14th March 1952. It was built between 1951 and 1952. For photographs of its construction see albums JLP01/01/063 - JLP01/01/064.
