Marlborough College, the prestigious public school, was founded in 1843 close to the river Kennet and the site of the old castle. An enclosed bridge crosses the A4 Bath road.
Its church disappeared from the cliffs into the ever-encroaching sea in the reign of Richard II. Another was built, and that too was a ruin for a number of years – it has since been restored.
Once a fishing village, Brighton was rescued by the late 18th-century fashion for sea air and sea bathing.
Otford is on the main Sevenoaks to Dartford road, alongside the River?Darent; it has become something of a commuter village today.
This bustling scene looks east to the pier pavilion and the pier. The bucket and spades, bare feet, donkeys and wickerwork basket chairs recapture a vanished era.
The lad may be returning from the castle, which could be approached on this road at that time. The four houses on the right, built in 1817, are now private residences.
Cromer's 500ft-long pier was built in 1901 to replace a landing jetty destroyed by gales in 1897. In the storms of 1953 it was damaged again.
The 120-foot tower of St James' dominates this view from the south-east. The church is notable for its 15th- century frontals, which are said to be the earliest set in the country.
The only medical institutions listed on the Johnson & Green street plan of 1868 are the Convalescent Home & Sea-Bathing Infirmary, and the Hydropathic Hospital.
One of Anglesey's best-known sailing resorts, at the eastern end of the Menai Strait, Beaumaris was founded by Edward I, who built one of his great castles here, although it was never finished.
Blundellsands beach forms part of the sixteen miles of sand stretching from Waterloo to Southport.
In the decades following the First World War, Exmouth reached the heights of its fame as a holiday resort, thanks to the greater mobility offered by railway trains and motor vehicles
He published a treatise on the advantages of sea-bathing, recommending Brighton very strongly.
The only medical institutions listed on the Johnson & Green street plan of 1868 are the Convalescent Home & Sea-Bathing Infirmary, and the Hydropathic Hospital.
The young teenage boy accompanied probably by his mother, with bathing suit in hand and towel draped nonchalantly over his left shoulder, add a note of gentle charm to this otherwise active
Bognor's growth from a tiny fishing village started in the 1780s, with Sir Richard Hotham's grand scheme inland (immodestly named Hothampton) aimed at the nobility and gentry, but was followed by piecemeal
Being on a headland, there are two shores here - north and south. Along the latter runs the wide Esplanade, with extensive views across the Bristol Channel.
There are overgrown sandpits above the junction of Victoria Road (centre left), and Beach Road (centre) which has since been re-named Shore Road.
Bargate was originally built to guard the main road into Southampton.
In the centre are the pump, in use until 1939, and the 16th-century market cross. On the right are Mabel Kemp's cycle shop and Isaac Minn's, a saddler's.
Of late Paignton has been greatly improved; a promenade pier has been erected, and the Esplanade – on which there is a band-stand – greatly extended.
A thatched cottage is the post office. A sign on the rickety telegraph pole advertises a public telephone, and fixed to the nearby wall is a bus timetable proclaiming that this is a fare stage.
Silhouetted against the skyline, the south lock- house does not immediately appear to be a part of one of the county's major tourist attractions.
Wheeled bathing machines at the water's edge preserve the modesty of Victorian swimmers so none can be seen braving the waters.
