It is very old fashioned!
The promenade and sea front is largely unspoilt like Llandudno but is it in the Regency style. There is a lovely promenade, not as long as Llandudno but there are dramatic red cliffs at either end. There are beautiful thatched roofed houses everywhere.
Here are a few photos to show what the seafront looks like.

Yes, you are right there. There are also some immaculately maintained gardens at one end giving a really good impression to visitors.

I think we all know that Fester's guess of Bradford isn't correct but it is in England.

I had quite a shock when I saw Exeter Cathedral. I had never been there before and I went to the cafe on the roof of John Lewis for a coffee and this amazing building appeared in view!
Here are a couple more photos of it just for interest.

             After reading Dave.R's new instructions for the automatic resizing of photos to be posted I thought I would try it out in conjunction with a quiz question.  Where is this Pier to be found?
