Sea Street: from the corner of Sea Street and Reach Road.
This postcard appears was sent on 21st December but the date is unclear. Possibly 1950’s
Addressed to Miss K Pyper (?) at 545 George Street, Aberdeen, Scotland the message reads:
Dear K
The view I am send (sic) is where we embark for France but the boat has not come into harbour but you can bet it wont be long. I will write again at the other side.’
The postcard shows Elms Cottage next to Jenner’s Taxis followed by the entrance to Chapel Lane and Green Windows (St Margaret’s Lodge). The tall building in the centre of the photograph is Portal House
The view is towards the Bay at St Margaret’s which has no harbour nor ferries to France which would have run from Dover approximately 3 miles down the coast.
