The sunniest place in Great Britain due to its sheltered location, modern Eastbourne emerged as a popular seaside resort in the early nineteenth century. Much has changed since then, but Eastbourne has weathered the changes well, surviving severe bomb damage in Second World War and still retaining much of its early grandeur.

Including some of Easbourne’s best-loved landmarks such as the Pier, Wish Tower and Beachy Head, this book takes you on a nostalgic journey from past to present.
