I took these photo's back in August on my Panasonic compact camera. I walked around some lesser known areas of the town before going onto the seafront.
 |
Café at the bottom of Seaview Street. |
 |
It welcomes dogs, as does a few cafe's and eating places these days.
|
 |
Many years ago it was a local dairy and retains this mosaic in the entrance doorstep.
|
 |
Cuttleby, a walkway between two roads with a couple of houses. |
 |
I spotted this display in the porchway. |
 |
This sign made me laugh too. |

 |
St. Peter's Church where we got married and where my wife's funeral took place in July. |
 |
On the wall of the house next to the church. |
 |
It depicts "Dudley", a donkey once owned by Gladys Nuttall. A well known Cleethorpes lady who kept donkeys on the beach. |
 |
This old Austen is regularly seen around the area. |
 |
Local butchers shop in St. Peter's Avenue.
|
 |
Above the shop front is an old delivery bike. |
 |
Modern versions of Victorian street lamps. |
 |
This fish & chip café is considered by some as the best in Cleethorpes.
|
 |
But then again, many folk say this one is the best. |
 |
Looking down toward the seafront. |
 |
Lots for our visitors to buy at this shop. |
 |
Of course, I was attracted to these delightful dogs. |
 |
In the Pier Gardens is this life sized sculpture of Dudley, made by local potter Donnas Peterson, who I got to know a few years ago. The local vandals have broken off his right ear, leaving only the metal spike and have since broken off the left one too. |
 |
A ferry heading past the pier on it's way to either Grimsby or Immingham dock. |
 |
Crazy Golf, always popular. |
 |
One of the signs in the Crazy Golf, fashioned in the style of Donald McGill, who used to design saucy seaside postcards. |
 |
The old Baptist Church. During WW1 it was bombed and some soldiers billeted in it were killed.
|
 |
"The Point", apartment block on the highest point along the seafront. |
 |
Strange name for a shop I thought. |
 |
Folk enjoying some outside hospitality at the top of Seaview Street.
