Just across the road in York Avenue stood this lovely house, Wick villa, hemmed in by the laundry premises. I do not know when it was built but it is shown on maps of the 1880’s and is probably much older than that. Always associated with laundries it could have had some connection with nearby Wick House, demolished in 1936. Wick Villa was removed in 1989, to be replaced, inevitably, by flats. A sad day for Hove. Why do we allow these demolitions?
