More about this scene
Once a main port on this part of the coast with important connections to Liverpool, this small picturesque harbour town is an attraction for sailors of a more leisurely kind these days. In this picture we see a charming street with a definite vernacular feel to it. Notice the small row of cottages on the right with its rendered roof and catslide dormers; the traditional shop fronts; the plain render; and the sash windows. This was long before the days when pebbledash and UPVc windows started to suck the character from such local scenes as this.
