Bottle Alley
I can also remember Bottle Alley which was the St Leonards side of the pier during the 1950's. My Mum sometimes used to take me to the Sun Lounge near Bottle Alley when I was a very small child where she would have a coffee and I would drink orange squash and there was often a pianist playing, even in the middle of the morning! We too lived in Ore (I went to Red Lake Infants and Sandown Primary schools) and we spent a lot of the summer weeks down on the beach and my Dad would join us during his lunch hour for a picnic. I can vaguely remember the tub man but not the details.

I have discovered that the old man in the tub is Biddy Stoneham. Use Google to find out more about him. He has an interesting history.
