Trivia:
In November 2006 Thurrock gained a WH Smith store as well as a Marks and Spencer Simply Food outlet. Unusually, the WH Smith did not replace the Retail Store, which has been the case at most other services.
Survey results:
In 2006, Thurrock was graded 3/5 by Holiday Which?
Also in 2006, the services won a five star loo award.
