I inherited a lot of old photos and negatives from a ~distant relation who was a keen photographer living in Trimworth Road Cheriton. Many of the photos are of Folkestone and surrounding area. The attached one is Sandgate Road/Castle Hill Avenue, and I think it is the clock tower of Christ Church at the far end of the grand building (which is no longer there) Guessing it was taken late 1950s early 1960s. Any idea what that building was?

Without being able to see your photo, Nick I think you might be referring to the Majestic Hotel, previously called the Westcliff Hotel. You can see a few photos of it on this page: [www.warrenpress.net] (you may need to copy & paste that address into your browser, as I don?t think the guestbook has the ability to make words into a link any more.
