Harwich is a town in Essex, England and one of the Haven ports, located on the coast with the North Sea to the east. It is in the Tendring district. Nearby places include Felixstowe to the northeast, Ipswich to the northwest and Colchester to the southwest. Its position on the estuaries of the Stour and Orwell rivers and its usefulness to mariners as the only safe anchorage between the Thames and Humber led to a long period of maritime significance, both civil and military.

  • Harwich is a town in Essex, England and one of the Haven ports, located on the coast with the North Sea to the east. It is in the Tendring district. Nearby places include Felixstowe to the northeast, Ipswich to the northwest and Colchester to the southwest. Its position on the estuaries of the Stour and Orwell rivers and its usefulness to mariners as the only safe anchorage between the Thames and Humber led to a long period of maritime significance, both civil and military. The town became a naval base in 1657 and was heavily fortified, with Harwich Redoubt, Beacon Hill Battery, and Bath Side Battery. Harwich today is contiguous with Dovercourt and the two, along with Parkeston, are often referred to collectively as Harwich.
  • Harwich [ˈhærɪdʒ] ist eine englische Hafenstadt im Südosten des Landes in der Grafschaft Essex. Hier befindet sich einer der wichtigsten Fährhäfen des Vereinigten Königreichs mit Verbindungen über die Nordsee nach Hoek van Holland und nach Esbjerg in Dänemark.
  • Harwich on satamakaupunki Essexin shire-kreivikunnan koillisosassa Englannissa Britanniassa. Asukkaita kaupungissa on noin 15 500 (lukuun sisältyy läheisen pienen merenrantakaupunki Dovercourtin asukkaat). Harwich sijaitsee Stour- ja Orwell-jokien suulla Pohjanmeren rannalla, ja kaupungissa on satama, josta on säännöllistä liikennettä Alankomaiden Hoek van Hollandiin ja Tanskan Esbjergiin. Harwich sai kaupunkioikeudet vuonna 1238. Kaupunki on Harwich & Parkeston F.C. -jalkapalloseuran kotipaikka.
  • Harwich è una cittadina di 15.500 abitanti della contea dell'Essex, in Inghilterra.
  • Harwich (In zeevaarderstaal vroeger ook bekend onder de verbastering Haarwijk) is een havenstad in Essex, Engeland, met 20.130 inwoners (2001). Het ligt aan de zuidkant van de samenvloeiing van de Orwell en de Stour, ca. 135 kilometer ten noordoosten van Londen. Harwich heeft veerverbindingen met Hoek van Holland, Rotterdam en Esbjerg. Er is een directe treinverbinding Harwich International Port - Liverpool Street Station in Londen, en Harwich International Port - Cambridge. In Harwich Town zijn nog restanten zichtbaar van een spooremplacement van de tijd dat treinen, beladen met passagiers, de veerboten op- of afreden. De havenactiviteiten van Harwich International Port worden bepaald door veerboten (met passagiers en auto's) over de Noordzee. De overslag van vrachtcontainers gebeurt in de havenplaats Felixstowe, aan de noordzijde van de riviermond.
  • Harwich er en havneby i Essex i England. Den ligger på Nordsjøkysten, med havet mot øst, i distriktet Tendring. De nærmeste byene er Felixstowe i nordøst, Ipswich i nordvest og Colchester i sørvest. Det antas at byen ble grunnlagt i midten av det 12. århundre. Posisjonen ved utløpene av elvene Stour og Orwell og det at Harwich er den eneste sikre havnen mellom Themsen og Humber betyr at den lenge har vært et viktig sted for sjøfarende, både sivile og militære. Byen ble sterkt befestet, med fort og batterier. Royal Navy har ikke lenger noen base i Harwich. Blant kjente personer med tilknytning til Harwich finner man Samuel Pepys som var parlamentsmedlem for byen, og Christopher Jones som eide en fjerdedel av skipet «Mayflower»; Harwich var det kjente skipets hjemmehavn. Det er regelmessige ferger fra Parkeston, som egentlig er en landsby rett utenfor Harwich, til Hoek van Holland i Nederland og til Esbjerg i Danmark. Det er per 2006planer om en ny containerhavn i Bathside Bay. I tillegg til at Parkeston henger sammen med Harwich har byen også vokst sammen med Dovercourt, og man refererer ofte kollektivt til dem som Harwich. Electric Palace Cinema er en av de eldste kinoer som er bygget spesielt for formålet. Det originale prosjektorrommet og den ornamentale fasaden er bevart.
