More about this scene
There are overgrown sandpits above the junction of Victoria Road (centre left), and Beach Road (centre) which has since been re-named Shore Road. There was still an empty beach, apart from a few out-of-season bathing machines, between the town and its northern hamlet which begins with Cliff Cottage and Shore Cottage (upper left). Ballard Down (top) and Ballard Point (far right) - known locally as Ballard Head - provide the chalky backdrop.
