The Transformation of a Disused Facility
The disused facility on Western Esplanade in Hove is set to undergo a significant transformation, courtesy of the new Yellowave cafe.
The building’s original purpose was to provide a public toilet and a pavilion for the Hove Bowls Club, which was a popular recreational activity in the area. The building’s history dates back to the 19th century, with the construction of the pavilion in 1885. The pavilion was designed to provide a comfortable and clean space for the club’s members to use before and after their games. The public toilet was added later, likely in the early 20th century, to cater to the growing number of visitors to the area. The building’s design reflects the architectural style of the time, with a mix of Victorian and Edwardian elements. The pavilion’s facade features a distinctive clock tower, which was a common feature in many public buildings of the time. The clock tower was likely added to provide a sense of time and to help the club’s members keep track of their games. The building’s internal layout is also noteworthy, with a large hall and several smaller rooms. The hall was used for various purposes, including meetings and events, while the smaller rooms were used for storage and other purposes. The building’s external features, such as the clock tower and the pavilion’s facade, have been retained, despite the building being decommissioned. The structure’s original purpose has been lost, but its historical significance remains. The building’s decommissioning was a result of the construction of new facilities elsewhere. The new facilities were designed to provide better services and amenities for the local community. The building’s decommissioning was a necessary step to make way for the new development.
