Abstract: |
CBAS Ltd was commissioned to carry out an Assessment of Significance report on the Ambassador Hotel, 1-3, Howard Square, Eastbourne. The Ambassador Hotel occupies the southern end of a terrace on the eastern side of Howard Square. This Victorian terrace is of six individual dwellings, which were later converted, most likely in the early part of the 20th century, into two hotels. The Ambassador Hotel is made up of the three southern most houses (Nos. 1-3, Howard Square). Opposite on the western side of Howard Square is a second terrace of houses, which have also been converted into two hotels, however, the northern end was bombed during the Second World War. This northern end of the western terrace now is occupied by a brick built building of seven storeys. In the event of conversion taking place, which may impinge of the surviving fabric of the building, it is recommended that a standing building survey conforming to an English Heritage Level 3 survey should be undertaken. This would fully record both the floor plan of the original three dwellings and record and interpret the history of the building including its later use as a hotel. Such a survey would also ensure that a record of the original features is available for future study. |
