A map of Seabrook

The map shows Seabrook from the cliffs in the north-east to the lighthouse on the point, with the sea to the east. The places marked on it are listed underneath, and most lead to an entry in the directory. The map is not to scale and should not be used for navigation. Number 14 Church Row is a private residence, and visitors are asked not to knock.

An illustrated map of Seabrook, drawn from above: the town on its hill, the River Seabrook, the harbour and the lighthouse on the point, the cliffs, and the pier running out into the bay. 1Seabrook Pier2Pier End3The Sea Wall4Finch’s Tea Room5The Mariner’s Rest, Pier Approach6The High Street7Harper’s Bookshop and the office above8Seabrook Medical Centre9The Gull and Lantern10The Seabrook Chronicle11Church Row12A private residence13All Hallows and the churchyard14Seabrook Gardens15Seabrook Police Station16Seabrook Town Hall17Seabrook Caravan Park18The Recreation Ground19The Cliffside Hotel20Cliff Road21Bus Station22Alice Penrose23The River Seabrook24The Old Stone Bridge25Seabrook Secondary26Market Square27Harbour Lane28The Harbour Bridge29The Harbour30The Lighthouse31Bennett’s Chandlery32The Old Fish Store33The Allotments
