Eastbourne, East Sussex - View of the Beach from the Pier (April 17, 1911) This charming photograph captures a scenic view of Eastbourne beach from the pier, located in the picturesque town of Eastbourne, East Sussex, England. The image, taken in April 1911, showcases the sandy beach dotted with colorful beach umbrellas and sunbathers enjoying the sunny day. The pier, a popular attraction, stretches out into the English Channel, providing a vantage point for fishing and taking in the breathtaking views of the sea. The groynes, which can be seen in the foreground, are a common feature of the Eastbourne coastline. These structures, made of timber or concrete, are built perpendicular to the shore to prevent erosion and protect the beach from being washed away. In the background, a few small boats can be seen anchored near the shore, adding to the quaint and idyllic scene. The promenade, which runs parallel to the beach, is bustling with activity. People can be seen strolling along the boardwalk, taking in the fresh sea air and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The pier, with its ornate pavilion, stands proudly in the distance, a testament to the town's rich history and tradition. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the past and transports us back to a simpler time. The beauty and charm of Eastbourne beach, as captured in this image, continue to draw visitors from around the world to this day.
