More about this scene
Designed by Eugenius Birch, the doyen of pier architects, the pier opened in 1870. Its first theatre seated 400, and cost a mere £250 – it eventually became a cattle-shed at Lewes! The saloons visible here halfway along the decking were added in 1901, the same year that work on the new pavilion was completed.
