The bronze plaque in the foreground shows the plans drawn up for Seaham by the architect John Dobson for local developer Charles Stewart, the 3rd Marquess of Londonderry. Shortage of money after developing the harbour and railway connection meant that only a few of the elaborate buildings in this area of the town could actually be built.
