Buildings along Queensway, Southend
These buildings were clearly there long before Queensway, and a wall needed to be built partly to stop children getting onto the dual carriageway.

Pennine, Coleman Street, Southend-on-Sea
This is the south-west elevation of the block. Pennine along with Quantock, Chiltern and Malvern comprise the Queensway Estate whose first tenants moved in from 1967 onwards. The estate was built in conjunction with the Queensway Ring Road scheme and replaced a grid of long-forgotten terraced streets built in the late C19. In the intervening years the estate has been beset by all the issues affecting other such high-rise developments and there are frequent calls for its major refurbishment or demolition.
