The Great Eastern Hotel, Harwich Quay (1890) by W.Vick - Photographer of Ipswich
One of the earliest photographs of the Great Eastern Hotel at Harwich, taken around 1890 during the late Victorian period.
The Great Eastern Hotel was so busy at the turn of the century, that a second timber annexe building know as the "Pavilion" or tea rooms, had to be built. Prior to that, the land was occupied by an earlier timber building located at Robert Hill's Coal Yard as seen above; the building was demolished around 1898. Later cards from around 1899, show the advertising boards and "fly" posters on the demolition site.

The "Great Eastern Hotel" and Pavilion, Harwich, Essex by Wallis (1920)
This classic "Wallis" photograph captures the true character of Harwich taken over 100 years ago, originally taken from the "Continental Pier".it captures the Great Eastern Hotel, originally built for £32,000, alongside the Quay Pavilion built to cater for the additional Great Eastern passengers, who could not fit in the Hotel.
On the pier we have a "salty old sailor", shipping and of course the obligatory uniformed officer.
