When these two old photographs passed into my possession there was no information as to where they were taken, although the dates were written beneath them.
The public house, Connaught Hotel, provides an easy clue to this one. The site is at the north west corner of Hove Street and New Church Road, then almost unbuilt on.
Land between Hove Street and the Aldrington boundary was often used by the circus at the turn of the century.
Date of the photograph 10 August 1892.
