Coloured postcard showing a view of the Sunken Garden, Brighton. The waterfront garden was a feature of the sea front of Brighton and Hove, extending from Eugenius Birch's West Pier (opened 1866) to the Angel of Peace statue (King Edward VII Memorial, by Newbury A. Trent, 1912) at the boundary between Brighton and Hove, and on to the Western Lawns in Hove. The westward development in Hove was completed in the 1930s; the Sunken Garden, nearer the Pier, was probably 1920s, and was removed in the early 21st century during redevelopment
