| Now part of the Burlington Hotel, this was originally 22 Grand Parade. In 1860 it was a cramming institute run by a schoolmaster by the name of Thomas Hopley. One of his boarders was a Reginald Cancellor, a 14-year-old retarded boy, son of a prosperous London lawyer. On 21 April of that year, a small bedroom on the third floor was the scene of a gruesome crime when Cancellor was flogged to death. A trial at Lewes found Hopley guilty but the prison sentence was a mere four years. Further details from Eastbourne Local History Society. |

| Chateau Beaurivage. This was originally St Margaret’s, built around 1870, and it started life as a convalescent hospital. The next owner was Francis William Henry Cavendish (1820-93), whose father was Henry Frederick Compton Cavendish,
a first cousin of the 6th Duke of Devonshire. Further information from Eastbourne Local History Society. |

| 'Greencroft', formerly 'Rosemount' and before that 'Frohsdorf'. During WW1, Rosemount was a Red Cross auxiliary hospital. The name changed to 'Greencroft' after WW1 when it became the premises of the Berkeley Country Club. Further information from Eastbourne Local History Society. |

This shows the seaward end of what is now Terminus Road (then Victoria Place), Eastbourne. The building to the left, with the low extension, was the then Sussex Club; after WW2 this became the temporary home of the public library. To the extreme left, at the junction of Grand Parade and Trinity Place, can be seen the Victorian pillar box which still stands at the same spot. The large white building with the huge conservatory was almost certainly ‘Greencroft’ in Trinity Place, which was situated opposite the end of Holy Trinity Church. The large house to the right of Greencroft was Trinity Chambers, the rear part of which survives adjacent to the present Andwell Court flats, at the rear of the former Co-op department store. The building to the right of Victoria Place is the present Burlington Hotel. |

Formerly The Sussex Club and after WW2 the temporary home of the public library. The reference library was in the single-storey building. |

I agree, this is definitely Grand Parade and Terminus Road in Eastbourne. The building on the right of the junction how houses the Belgian Cafe and the space on the left with the sweeping curve of trees is now a Harry Ramsdens. I much prefer the 1920 image. |
