Shaftesbury Avenue, Southend-on-Sea

Long straight roads of fairly substantial terraced housing such as this are typical of many of the older parts of Southend. Shaftesbury Avenue, seen here looking east, faces Southchurch Park. Looking at this not very high quality image over seven years later, I am surprised that it should have achieved so many hits. See Image for how the area has subtly changed for the better over the years.
