Description: TUCK'S - Bexhill-on-Sea, ENGLAND - Promenade & Beach: Bexhill-on-Sea (often shortened to Bexhill) is a seaside town and civil parish in the Rother District in the county of East Sussex in South East England. It is located along the Sussex Coast and between the towns of Hastings and Eastbourne. Reginald Sackville, seventh Earl De La Warr, decided to transform what was then a village on a hill around its church into an exclusive seaside resort, which he named Bexhill-on-Sea. He was instrumental in building a sea wall south of the village, and the road above it was then named De La Warr Parade. Large houses were built inland from there, and the new town began. In 1890, the luxurious Sackville Hotel was built. The town, like many other English seaside resorts, is now much more a settled community. Although there is a small entertainment area on the seafront, it now has a large, retired population, like much of the south coast. Efforts are being made to increase tourism in Bexhill. This Sepia-toned Era (9107-15) postcard is in good condition. Raphael Tuck & Son. No. 2137.
