Washington House on Castle Hill, Seaton.

A plaque by the gate to the building reads:
Washington House 1845.
Formerly Cliff House, built as a
two-storey house by local builder,
Joseph Good in 1845.
Good, later, donated a foot of his garden
to the local authority to facilitate
a coastal road to Beer. Some time
in the 1920s/1930s a third floor was added
to create the Cliff House Hotel. During
World War 2, the hotel was used as
an army officers' billet. After the
war, the hotel was sold to
a Mr Ted Washer, who renamed
it Washington House.

The head of the plaque bears the Seaton coat of arms.
The plaque was placed in the Rotary International centenary year, 2005.

The building now appears to have been converted to flats.
