Northwest and downhill on Cliff Road, Seaford
Cliff Road is one of a number of named roads locally, lined with substantial houses, but apparently unadopted by the highway authority, hence unmetalled. The cream-painted block of flats left of centre is referred to on a streetmap as The Lodge but by estate agents' websites as Corsica Hall.

The view is from unmetalled Cliff Road. In the centre of the photo are the apartment blocks of the town centre; chalk cliffs beyond Newhaven catch the sun.

Cliff Close, Seaford
Seen from the public footpath up on to Seaford Head. Going by old maps, nearby Cliff Road, Corsica Road, Gerald Road and Maurice Road were shown laid out in 1910 but by 1927 were only partly developed with houses. Cliff Close was built between 1963 and 1974.

Open space behind and below the seafront, Seaford
A map of 1874 shows this as part of the Beame Lands, rough grassland at the back of the beach, doubtless subject to inundation in storms or exceptionally high tides. This risk was presumably reduced by the construction of the Esplanade, foreground, begun towards the end of the century, though the town here still keeps well back from the sea.

Sewage plant, Seaford
It's not clear what Southern Water does to sewage here: whether they treat it in some way, or pump it elsewhere (such as Newhaven). Behind the Esplanade and below Cliff Close, this plant is at possibly the lowest point in the town; there is a sewage outfall to the sea across the road at Splash Point. Seaford was among the south coast towns where there were protests following the release of sewage into the sea in the summer of 2023. The device intended to monitor such events did not work. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-66421686

Steep bank beside College Road, Seaford
The bank supports a colony of tamarisk, a shrub that tolerates salt spray. The back of the seafront Esplanade is across the open space, left. Above the bank is a large property called The Lodge. Behind the camera, College Road leads to the residential area of detached houses around Corsica Road and Fitzgerald Avenue
