Old cottages and house

What we know about this image :

The photo taken in 1853 shows the little row of buildings that back onto the foreshore. They would have probably been flooded at extremely high tides. The centre cottage was a post office and grocery shop. The large house at the end was a farmhouse and then became the Cafe Royal.
