Seascale
Mid-20th Century
Looking south-east on a near-cloudless late, summer afternoon from near the low water mark towards the southern end of the village of Seascale. Among the terraced streets, shops meet the needs of the holiday-makers who cover the beach in good numbers. Families relax or chat, some people stroll while children play on the sands or in the pools of sea-water. A modern bungalow stands out among the much older buildings towards the right of the image while the railway goods shed, signal and under bridge may be seen on the left. The image is titled 'H495 Seascale from The Shore' for postcard printing purposes.
