| I believe they are Jeremiah Colman's attempt at a sea defense to stop his house from falling into the sea, an unsuccessful attempt. |

Hiya, these are the remains of the old promenade that Jeremiah James Colman built below his home Cliff House. He built a sea wall and promenade in 1897. At about the same time he provided Corton with its Village Hall and United Methodist Chapel, and he was the main contributor to the fund for building a School. He built many of the houses in Corton for his staff. You can still see J.J.C. inscribed on the brickwork. Cliffe House was eventually demolished in 1917, but the gardens were sold and became one of Cortons first holiday attractions. |
