The White Lion in Lewes, despite the company of nesting birds, seems sad his pub was demolished in 1937. More so, perhaps, when he learns he’s a replica, his C18 original now in the Town Hall.

Bronze & enamel lectern by Gilbert Bayes in the Savoy Chapel, memorial to Laurence (son of Henry) Irving who drowned with 1000 others when the Empress of Ireland sank off Canada in 1914. Its captain Henry Kendall, on his prior ship, sent the radio message that led to Dr Crippen's arrest.

Magnus Volk at St Wulfran, Ovingdean. Inventor of Volk's Electric Railway in Brighton, the world's oldest still-operating electric railway, and the wonderful if short-lived Brighton & Rottingdean Seashore Electric Railway that ran through the sea on stilts. At low tide you can still see sleepers.
