Bexhill-on-Sea East Sussex + Lady Sybil Grant

The Angry Whelk

There’s more to Bexhill-on-Sea than the De La Warr Pavilion, y’know.

What would Lady Sybil Grant have to say? Writing in her 1912 literary curio Samphire: “Provided that we are a star we should not trouble about the relative importance of our position in the heavens.” And more to the point, “Yes, today will be fine.”
