A grade II listed building of the 1850s, the only completed part of Dovercourt New Town, but the developer went bankrupt and the project died. There was originally another house at the far end, The Convent, which completed a symmetrical block. This is described in the 1972 listing, but is now demolished.

Orwell Road, Dovercourt
Orwell Road has more the look of a street in the Bayswater area of London than somewhere on the Essex Coast. It would have been built sometime in the 1850s at a time when Dovercourt was being promoted as a new resort.
During World War One, at No. 9 Orwell Road, Dovercourt (within this terrace), there was a Home Hospital - The Women’s Suffrage [Field] Hospital. The ‘Men’s Society for Women’s Rights’ organised it in August 1914. It may not have operated beyond 1916, because it is reported that the Society “seems not to have been active” after that year – however, the staff may have carried on regardless. Today, the terrace is Grade II listed.
