Seaford: “There is nothing strange here, but I will write later on”

Postmark:Chyngton Camp B.O., Seaford, 16 August 1915

[There is an additional mark on the front of the card, showing “11 AM 17 AU”, but the location is not visible].

Dear Jennie,

I received your letter this morning. There is nothing strange here, but I will write later on. Hoping you will have a good time at home. This is all I have time for now.

Postcard shows: “The Esplanade, looking east, Seaford” Pedestrians in Edwardian dress promenade along the front, while some rest on the adjacent benches. A shingle beach, scattered with small boats, fills the right hand side, and a terrace of houses lines the road on the left. In the distance are the headlands and white cliffs of Seaford Head.
