Westcliff-on-sea
Westcliff-on-Sea is a residential area of Southend-on-Sea, a seaside resort and also unitary authority in Essex in south-east England. It is on the north coast of the lower Thames Estuary, regarding 34 miles (55 km) east of London. The main purchasing location in Westcliff-on-Sea is Hamlet Court Road, where the chain store Havens, established in 1901, stayed the anchor store up until its closure in 2017. Hamlet Court Road took its name from a manor house called the Hamlet Court, which depended on land currently inhabited by Pavarotti's dining establishment and also adjoining shops, facing in the direction of the sea with sweeping yards to the rail line. The road later turned into a solid independent retail area and quickly became famous outside the area as the Bond Street of Essex. There were several haberdashers and specialist shops, and it was not too unusual to see licensed operators waiting for their companies to emerge from the stores.
