This view of the Hotel and Kings Road dates from about 1870. As can be seen workmen in course of erecting the railings overlooking the beach. The esplanade from here to the Hove boundary had been laid down as far back as 1827 but for a long time it was unfenced and a low bank ran down to the beach below.
