*************

Westcliff-on-Sea is a suburb of Southend-on-Sea, a seaside resort in the East of England and unitary authority in Essex. It is situated on the northern bank of the Thames Estuary and about 34 miles (55 km) east of London

The cliffs formed by erosion of the local Quaternary geology afford views over the Thames Estuary towards the Kent coastline to the south. The coastline has been transformed into sandy beaches through the use of groynes and imported sand. The estuary at this point is marked by extensive mud flats. At low tide, the water typically retreats to some 600m from the beach, leaving the mud flats exposed.

The two main theatres in Westcliff are the Cliffs Pavilion, which overlooks the seafront, and the Palace Theatre.

Westcliff-on-Sea is also home to the Thames Estuary Yacht Club and the Westcliff Casino, which is the largest provincial casino and the second largest casino in Great Britain.

Opposite the Cliffs Pavilion theatre there is also an art gallery called the Beecroft Art Gallery which changes its exhibitions on a regular basis, often exhibiting local work which features Southend and the surrounding area sites such as Hadleigh Castle and the pier.

For art lovers, as well as the Beecroft gallery there is a Westcliff Art Trail which is hosted every year. Local artists get the chance to showcase their work in shops; much of the trail happens in Hamlet Court Road.

Westcliff-on-sea has always had a strong musical culture. The Queens Hotel in Hamlet Court Road, Westcliff-on-Sea, was one of the key venues in Southend punk history.[citation needed] Now demolished, the venue had the likes of The Damned, Slaughter and The Dogs, Killing Joke and many others play in its rooms. It become one of the few places in the area to host punk shows as venues such as The Kursaal banned several early punk shows.[citation needed]

Due to falling into a state of disrepair following a fire it was eventually converted into retirement community housing.[citation needed]
