Nr 55 Chapel Street, built for John Batten c1838, magistrate and merchant, owned by Louis Deschamp of the French Telegraph in 1881; 1891 it was Perrow's Temperance Hotel, and later The Regent Hotel. Telephone Nr 146. This picture 1894.
I still say it is better to have the building preserved in one way or another, and used, than to have it rot away or pulled down because rates were too high, etc .. Provided it is all done with its heritage kept intact.
Hi, being a descendant of the owner of the hotel I was wondering if it would be possible to get a copy of this photograph for my Father - he's an avid Family history enthusiast and would dearly love this on his wall.Kind RegardsNiky Perrow
