Milnthorpe Road, Eastbourne, where Sir Ernest Shackleton lived
The photo shows a southerly view of Milnthorpe Road in Eastbourne as viewed from near its junction with Chesterfield Road. Sir Ernest Shackleton stayed at 14 Minlthorpe Road between 1916 and 1922 (though he was often away in Antarctica), while George Mallory boarded at Glengorse Preparatory School on Chesterfield Road between 1896 and 1900. Although these two famous explorers and adventurers would not have known each other at that time, each went on to achieve world acclaim and near-mythic status. Shackleton, who led three British expeditions to the Antarctic, was one of the main figures of the period known as the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration, while Mallory’s three British expeditions to Mt. Everest are of similar status in the field of human endeavour and achievement. While pursuing the limits of what was possible, both men died young in the places they loved, with Shackleton dying at the age of 47 and Mallory dying a few days short of his 38th birthday.
