Burlington Hotel Claremont Hotel

The Burlington Hotel and Claremont Hotel are a notable series of buildings located on Grand Parade in Eastbourne, built between 1851 and 1855. This terrace originally consisted of 19 houses, with the Burlington Hotel now comprising 13 of them, although it initially included only the central portion of the terrace. The buildings rise four storeys with a basement and area, and Nos 13 to 23 feature an additional storey. The design is not entirely symmetrical, as the extra storey was originally present on two more houses on the west side (Nos 17 and 18) than on the east.

Each house has three windows, totaling 57 across the terrace. The buildings are finished in stucco, with a rusticated ground floor. The ground floor features round-headed windows, while iron balconies adorn the first floor, with the balcony on No 6 replaced by a Victorian version. Above the second floor is a cornice, and another cornice with a parapet crowns the top floor. The end houses (Nos 5 and 6, and 22 and 23) and the three central houses (Nos 13 to 15) project slightly and are supported by Ionic columns from the first to the second floors, which hold up the lower cornice. Above this, plain pilasters extend to the upper cornice. The central five windows (No 14 and one window on each side) are topped with a pediment instead of a parapet. No 14 also features a porch with Doric columns and a balustrade above its entablature. The windows do not have glazing bars.

In modern times, Nos 19 to 23 have had an extra storey added, making them the same height as the central houses, and they now have a mansarded roof with large modern windows. Additionally, the ground floor facade of No 7 has been cut away to create a recessed entrance for the Claremont Hotel. The two adjacent houses to the east (Nos 8 and 9) have experienced war damage, but the facades of the buildings remain intact.
