More about this scene
Seaside bustle on the promenade, built as the old Upper Walk between the town and the Cobb Harbour in 1817; it is now known as Marine Parade. The view looks north-eastwards from between Langmoor Gardens and the former bathing-machine steps to the Bay Hotel (centre). Up to the left (above the telephone kiosk) stood Wings, which was demolished in 1928. This was thought to have been the house in which Jane Austen stayed, but modern research shows that it must have been Pyne House, in Cornhill, above the Square.
