We just love working at the seaside in January ! 🌊☔️❄️
The decorative spandrels and frieze (or should that be freeze) will finish the project off very nicely ! 👌

The cast iron balconies at 42–44 Alexandra Road, Cleethorpes, are now visible again after the hoardings were removed earlier today. 🙌

Originally built between 1887 and 1906, these historic features have been beautifully restored as part of the Cleethorpes Townscape Heritage Programme.
