Seahouses was the original name of the small hamlet the initially grew up on the seafront around 1790 that would eventually become Eastbourne. The water fountain in the centre of the square was erected in 1835 at the northern end of the road but was moved southwards because it was causing an obstruction. The small square links Marine Parade with Seaside, the A259.
