The clue to the age of this large photograph is provided by the letters BRUM over the shop window of No. 90. This was occupied by C. Brumfit, tobacconist, who was here from 1865 until 1868, so it dates from one of these years and is probably the oldest existing photograph of the Grand Hotel, opened in 1864.
