Lifstan Way Esplanade Junction, Looking East Towards Plas Newydd Road And The Halfway House

A Memory of Thorpe Bay.

The Houses with their "victorian" balconies are distinctive, and the Halfway House building can be identified in the middle of the picture. A lovely walk on a windless summers day - absolutely deserted during the winter bad weather save for a few hardy, masochistic souls.
During the summers, 1946 to 1953 I used to cycle along here heading for Thorpe Hall School, or the TBYC - it was a pleasant ride. When the weather was bad,everyone who could used Shaftesbury Avenue, a block inland, for journeys in the same direction, because that route was more protected
