1-12 Seaview Terrace, 1890s. Former railway workers' houses, three blocks of four flats in a stepped terrace of polychrome brick, prettier than those at Mallaig, with gabletted porches to their front elevations and door canopies on decorative cast iron brackets to their rear. At the terrace's end, the rare survival of a communal laundry building with distinctive flue.
