Historic England: Eastbourne & Around
Unique Images from the Archives of Historic England
Overview
This illustrated history portrays one of England’s finest seaside towns. It provides a nostalgic look at Eastbourne’s past and highlights the special character of some of its most important historic sites.
Photographs and Archive
The photographs are taken from the unique Historic England Archive, the nation’s record of 12 million photographs, drawings and publications, ranging from the 1850s and the earliest days of photography up to the present day.
About the Town
Historic England: Eastbourne shows the town as it once was, from its streets and squares to its parks and promenades. It remains a genteel resort with none of the glitz, glamour and ‘kiss-me-quickness’ of other seaside towns; even today there are no shops or amusement arcades along the seafront.
Conclusion
This book provides a nostalgic trip through time and shows that Eastbourne is still the ‘Empress of the South’.
