Houseboats (+PiPs)

Houseboats (+PiPs)
There is a large Houseboat community on the seafront at Shoreham-by-Sea, in West Sussex. Strangely they are situated almost immediately in front of a housing estate. I was going to walk over the bridge to get a closer look, but I've read that (probably quite rightly) the residents of the houseboats aren't keen on people gawking at them and taking photos.

These are taken at 100mm (which was the longest zoom I had with me) and considerably cropped. Best viewed large, I think.

The large vessel looks as if it's new to the site........ and it seems to having a lot of work done to it.

Please check out the 2 PiPs if you have time :-)

It is a bit odd...............but everyone seems to get along together..............I think some of the houseboats have been there since the 60s, but not sure about the houses.

Für mich sehen sie auch aus, als würde da schon lange keiner mehr wohnen :)
Ich kann mir gut vorstellen, auf einem Hausboot zu leben...aber wenn, dann bitte auf dem Wasser :)

They are on tidal mudflats Isabel.........so they will float when the tide rises.

As far as I know these are all occupied............in fact a few of them are available as airbnb accommodation! The community has been there for years!

At the time I took these shots the houseboats are sitting on tidal mudflats, so they will float when the tide comes in. I doubt that any of them are truly seaworthy though :-)
