Cliff Road, Dovercourt looking South East towards Marine Parade

One of the earliest residential areas built at Dovercourt, was around Cliff Road along with Orwell Terrace in the 19th Century. The residential houses are composed of substantial Victorian houses, with some on the West side, still retaining, attractive sash windows with margin lights set variously in openings with rubbed brick voussoirs at ground floor level and distinctive semi-circular stuccoed surrounds at first floor. Opposite, on the east side, is a group of four pairs of paired villas of three storeys with central stacks: three are of red brick with yellow brick details, although the most northerly is all of yellow brick and in a much more robust style altogether.
