Sea Defences and housing, Silloth
Although clearly marked as East Cote on the OS Maps, this area is called Secote on local signage. It is typical of the ribbon of development that runs from Silloth to Skinburness. The picture was taken from the very robust sea wall, which can be seen in the foreground.
