More about this scene
At one time, elegant Victorian terraced houses, which were built between l835 and l857, graced the Parade. Apart from the last two terraced houses, these were demolished in the 1930s. In their place the Osborne Court apartments were built in Art Deco style just before the Second World War; they were used as a naval base during the war. Almost next door is the Royal London Yacht Club, which was formed in London in 1878. Part of this classical building was the home of Dr Hoffmeister, surgeon to Queen Victoria. The circular ornate railings on the Parade (foreground) were later removed.
