One of Bournemouth's best known hotels, the Wessex on West Cliff Road, closed in early January 2018 and is now undergoing demolition. It is due to be replaced by a 100-bed hotel and around 80 residential apartments. Despite being relatively well known, it appears to have been photographed on Geograph only once while operating: Image
