Rita shares her memories of the prom

You used to get a lot of visitors in Gravesend for the Prom. You could spend all day at the Prom looking at the ships coming up and down the river. There was a lot of business there. You used to get a lot of the big liners; they used to come into Tilbury. It was always very busy.
