Terraced property on Southend Avenue
These large terraced properties on the south western fringe of the town centre mark the beginnings of the leafy suburbs on this side of the town. They are not shown on the 1899 map, but are on that of 1914. Southend Avenue appears to have been named after a villa that once stood behind these houses, and not after a brash resort in Essex.
