The state of the derelict old hotel has gradually worsened since I photographed it on the first day of 2009 (Image) and it has recently been shored up with scaffolding in a bid to somehow regenerate it. Meanwhile, alongside is a public footpath leading down to Boscombe Chine Gardens. See Image for the next photo on the path, and links to further pictures along the route.
