Behind the somewhat overdressed children is Eastbourne's fine pier, designed by Eugenius Birch in 1871.
Designed by Birch, the pier opened in 1870.
Some parts of Victoria Park were left as woodland, and bracken, silver birch and oak thrive.
The original house, built by Mr Hutchinson Brown, was bought by Charles Birch Crisp who, in 1910, commissioned newly-qualified architect Oliver Hill to enlarge the house and design the gardens.
Oak, birch and beech trees predominate and there are over 400 species of flora and over 60 species of birds.
The original pier was designed by Eugenius Birch, and was one of the classic piers of the British seaside resort in its design.
Now Birch, Browne & Son's Hairdressing Salons (to the Lion's right) offers new-fangled 'Permanent Waving' to its clients!
It was built in 1863-66 to designs by Eugenius Birch and was gradually embellished over the years.
The Hoe Pier was the last to be designed by Eugenius Birch; he died a couple of months before it opened on 29 March 1884.
The wooden gates and fences in the photograph are typical of this southern, less-mountainous part of the Lake District, and the slightly-blurred leaves of the silver birch trees are caused by wind movement
Pairs of 1930s semis seem to march down the hill, the view made more bleak by the brutal municipal pruning of the silver birch trees - they are now no more substantial than the street lamp or the telephone
This is clearly demonstrated in this fine panoramic view of Brighton from the West Pier, which was designed by Eugenius Birch and opened in 1866.
The pier was another Birch-designed affair, his only one in Wales.
Situated at the junction of Prince's Road and Hanger Hill, this was formerly called The Birches.
One of Lamorna's most famous residents was the painter Samuel John Birch, who moved there in 1892 and stayed for the rest of his life.
Birch's pier was a victim of the Second World War: only the tollhouses remained after the damaged structure had been pulled down to assist the needs of a coastal gun battery.
The soil is thin, sandy and infertile, but it suits slow-growing oak trees, birch and bracken.
A typical moss landscape of sedge and scruffy birch trees is in the foreground; beyond are some of the traditional peat cutters who were still working the area.
In the early 1860s the Pier Company was formed, but infighting slowed the work; Eugenius Birch's pier, started in 1866 and part-opened in 1870 by Lord Edward Cavendish, was not completed until 1872
Designed by Eugenius Birch, the doyen of pier architects, the pier opened in 1870.
The pier, designed by Eugenius Birch, opened in 1872.
This business, founded in the 19th century, was formerly Birch's, and by 1885 Monaghan's.
