Thanks, not far enough clockwise - a normal services would do - so long as they allow overnight parking.

South Mimms is on the north side of the M25 near the A1.

Theres a couple of quiet large pull off style laybys (old roads seperated from the new road) just south of the A127 on the A128, about 30 mins from Hockley.

Theres also a large pulloff layby on the A128 within 75yds of the A13 roundabout North Bound on the A128.

Theres also a BP services on the A13 that allows overnight parking.

Thurrock services is down towards Grays? Maybe further around than I wanted.

Still looking the nearest most suitable - I'm not doing laybys - every joker passing thinks its fun to parp, plus it's not strictly legal.

Never been here before but my app for parking places has this place near. Also there’s a fb group called “HGV parking and postcodes” which is good for non services parking and other handy places to stop.

The traffic on the road wouldn't even see you let alone know your there.

Truck stop a bit out of the way just off the A13.

If you want peace and quiet look for a campsite in the area.

Motorway services and truckstops are the worst places in the world to stay overnight. Lorries coming and going all night, fridge trailers running constantly, Eastern European drivers starting their engines at 2 in the morning, the smell of stale pee, and you get relieved of the thick end or thicker of £30 for that...
