Laid out in the late 1930s as part of a planned estate that was halted due to the outbreak of the Second World War then stalled by tougher planning laws after. However, during the early 1970s the remainder of the state was completed. Where Marine Drive once came to a dead end it now finishes at a junction with St Margaret's Rise.
