English: The Pleasaunce The Pleasaunce was designed by Edwin Lutyens and dates from 1897-9.

The village of Overstrand is situated on a clifftop just southeast of the town of Cromer on the east Norfolk coast. Originally a small fishing village, Overstrand was 'discovered' by the rich and famous, who built their holiday homes here in the 19th century, leading to its nickname as "the village of millionaires". A number of unusual properties, dating from several periods and ranging from traditional flint cottages to large and magnificent houses, can be found here.
