The image is a black and white photograph of a street scene in a coastal area. The photograph is taken from a high angle, looking down the street towards the sea. On the left side of the image, there are several row of terraced houses with large windows and chimneys. The houses are painted in a traditional English style, with ornate details on the façade and balconies. The street is lined with street lamps and there are cars parked along the curb. In the foreground, there is a concrete wall with a railing, and a group of people sitting on a bench on the sidewalk. The sky is overcast and the ground is covered in gravel.
