Marine Hotel

What we know about this image :

Front Street after 1901 as the Marine Hotel has been built but Ashburn House next door remains & was not demolished until much later. The first licence for the Marine was granted to AH Eve on 6 January 1902. The hotel was requisitioned by the Military in April 1918 & again for the Second World War. Asburn House had been for sale in 1932 so was possibly purchased by Cameron's Brewery. During the Second World War it was used as storage for the Civil Defence. In February 1f 1946 many items went missing incuding blankets, hot water bottles & towels. There was no sign of a break in.
