The Royal Hippodrome

Eastbourne

The Royal Hippodrome opened on 2 August 1883, when Eastbourne was one of the most fashionable resorts in the country. Mysterious footsteps on the stage, a black mass in the stalls, doors that open and close as someone unseen walks through, and piano music caught on a recording when no piano was being played are just some of the accounts from this Victorian theatre.
