We found this wonderful old photo of The Pantiles in Royal Tunbridge Wells, once the retreat of choice of the English upper-crust under the tutelage of Dandy Richard "Beau" Nash, the Tim Gunn of his day. The photo was obviously taken when the floor was actually still tiles (hence the name), which it isn't anymore, sadly. There are considerably less tourists and locals in this photo than were there when we visited! A charming place.

Thank you for posting this photo! The details are fascinating. Sometimes I think of that when I take pictures....the old pictures weren't such close-ups as we have now, and they showed a lot more of life during the period.
Isn't the tile amazing?
