Cliff House, Cullercoats
Cliff House, Cullercoats
Cliff House is one of the oldest and most attractive buildings in Cullercoats and
dates from 1768. The builder and first owner of the house was Thomas
Armstrong, a commander of His Majesty’s Cutter, 'Bridlington'. It was alleged
he helped smugglers escape, which may help account for his grandiose house.
Close to here was the site of the Bank Top studio (now demolished) of the famous American artist Winslow Homer (1836-1910). See NZ3671 : Life Brigade Watch House, Cullercoats for more details.
