The Essex coastal town of Frinton-on-Sea is considered to be an exclusive and upmarket seaside resort, famous for its railway crossing and the divide between living inside the railway gates and outside the gates (a true Frintonian is widely held by the local community to be one who lives within the sea-facing side of the railway gates). Frinton has managed to retain an image of an English seaside idyll circa 1955 by keeping modern amusement arcades, bouncy castles and commercialism firmly at bay. It is only since 2000 when the town's residents finally agreed to host a public house. The beach is studded with rows of sturdily built Victorian wooden beach huts reminiscent of the days when the town was a favourite retreat for the aristocracy and even royalty.
