In 1789, George III gave royal approval to the new fashion for sea bathing by taking a medicinal dip in the sea at Weymouth, Dorset, from the prototype beach hut. The ‘hut’ was actually a room on wheels with a collapsible hood, which was drawn into the water by a horse. The King was then plunged naked into the sea by burly attendants called dippers. Later, the Victorians popularised the trend. Patrons would hire them by the half-hour, disappearing into them to change into bathing costumes. Horses would then pull them into the sea so they could step discreetly into the water with only their heads visible to onlookers. The bathing machines remained in active use on English beaches until the 1890s, when they began to be parked on the beach. By the 1950s, beach huts were enjoying their heyday and the coast of Britain was ribboned by brightly coloured rows of them.

Designed and built by Magnus Volk, the ‘pioneer’ or ‘Daddy Long Legs’ as it was popularly known served the Brighton and Rottingdean seashore electric railway between 1896 and 1901. Propulsion was by electric motorand due to regulations then in place, a qualified sea captain was on board at all times, and the car was provided with lifeboats and other safety measures.This was a proposal by Magnus Volk for a railway that ran along on rails underneath the sea for about 50 to 100 yards offshore, from where his existing electric railway finished all the way to Rottingdean, where it was connected to a pier. The tramcar ran on stilts that were about 24 feet above the sea bed.

The Brighton Marine Palace and Pier is a pleasure pier in Brighton, England, which opened in 1899. Generally known as the Palace Pier for short, it was informally renamed Brighton Pier since 2000 before returning to its original name. It is now Brighton’s only non-derelict pier.

The Royal Pavilion (also known as the Brighton Pavilion), is a former pleasure palace residence. It was built in three stages, beginning in 1787, as a seaside retreat for George IV, Prince of Wales, who later became the Prince Regent in 1811. This historic house mixes Regency grandeur with the visual style of India and China (or the Indo-Saracenic style prevalent in India for most of the 19th Century). Visitors can admire the lavish and somewhat eccentric interiors including the magnificent dining room with its huge dragon-theme chandelier.
