Tram bodies made into a house - Winchelsea Beach - 10.8.2015

Tram bodies made into a house - Winchelsea Beach - 10.8.2015
According to a couple who live near here, the core of this house is a U shape formed of three old tram bodies. The rounded end profile of one of the bodies, seen on the left of all three photos, makes me wonder about that. The square framing of the rows of four windows is similar to a photo I have seen of a carriage on the Rye & Camber Tramway, so the bodies on the south and east elevations could be from that local source. I am sure that the history of these old relics has been documented. If I find out more details I will add them here.
One of the properties, along The Ridge, with a railway carriage at its centre, did come on the market a couple of years ago and one could see the rooms made out of individual compartments.
