KINGS ROAD AND THE GRAND HOTEL c.1864

Recent copies of two very old stereoscopic photographs of the 1860’s. This photograph, shows something rarely seen – the south pavement of Kings Road without the protective kerbside iron railings. No reliable information now exists about the year of their instillation along this stretch of the pavement. It is thought to have been done in the late 1860’s. This photograph is the older of the two as work on the Grand Hotel is still in progress ( see scaffolding and unfinished wall) so the date of this was probably early 1864.
