The Coastguard Cottages
Over the years
Some great pictures of the Coastguard Cottages some taken before the storage tanks appeared, some when the old caravans were on the land in front of the cottages. The cottages were built about 1893.

Rear view of the cottages. Looks like the seawall is post 1953 and the tanks are there

Again with the caravans. Today there are houses and modern static caravans
