Looking across Medina Lawn to St Catherine's Lodge on St Catherine's Terrace, Kingsway, with Albemarle Mansions on the far left. St Catherine's Lodge was built in the 1850s and became a hotel, St Catherine's Lodge Hotel, in 1927. For a period in the early 2000s it served as a hostel for homeless people. It remains a hostel offering cheap accommodation (but with wider availability) and has been renamed Smart Sea View Brighton (despite being in Hove). Medina Lawn was originally a private lawn for residents of the terrace but was taken over by Hove Council after the Second World War for public use.
