Thorpe Bay Gardens is one of the most expensive roads in Southend. The contrast between this and some of the other roads in the area is instructive. As is so often the case, respective postcodes mark the difference. Whereas this road is (just) within the SS1 area things look very different just over the border in parts of SS3. Compare this for example with Image which lies just over ten minutes' walk away.
