About

Ramshill & South Cliff occupies a prominent coastal position overlooking the North Sea. The area is characterised by steep, grassy slopes that descend to the shoreline, with residential streets arranged on the higher ground. These cliffs provide extensive views across the water and back towards the town, with several public footpaths traversing the open green spaces. The geography defines the quiet, residential atmosphere here, removed from the busier central areas.

A notable feature is the historic water-balanced cliff lift, connecting the cliff top to the promenade below. The area includes formal gardens and a network of sheltered walks along the cliff face, such as the Holbeck Gardens path. Its layout and amenities reflect its development as a Victorian seaside resort, with many properties from that era still defining the architectural character of the neighbourhood.
