Virtual Tour of Frinton-on-Sea England

 

 

About the Program

After more than a year without travel, take a well deserved break and come with us to explore a sleepy English seaside town with Twentieth Century Social Historian Genista Davidson.  

 Frinton-On-Sea is located in Essex, East Anglia and was designed to be one of the most modern housing and social complexes of the 1930s in the U.K. Leading International Architects of the period were commissioned to design houses, shops, a church, school and hotel for this new up and coming resort. While only a fraction of what was originally planned came to fruition, the area became extremely fashionable, drawing top politicians and celebrities of the day.  Join Genista on a walk around the town discovering the Art Deco legacy that has been left for all to enjoy.
