About Seafield

Despite additions, this house is an interesting example of late Victorian architecture. The irregular roofline and use of gables and gablets are characteristic features of the Tudor Revival style.

Questions about Seafield
Is Seafield on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 20828096).
Can you visit Seafield?
Many historic buildings are private homes; this one can be seen from the street.
When was Seafield built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1860–1880.
Is Seafield protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
