Here's an update on information I had provided regarding Eastern Terrace, the last dwelling of Lady Dorothy Mills, once the globe-trotting sister-in-law of George Mills:
Vinylrichie has left a new comment on your post "Steyning Mansions Hotel, Eastern Terrace, Brighton...":
As a resident of Eastern Terrace for the past decade, I must correct your assertion that "Among other units on Eastern Terrace, numbers 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9 are now owned and maintained by Brighton Polytechnic as Halls of Residence".
The properties are now all in provate hands and have not been used as student accommodation for many years. Nos 8 and 9 are still individual, one-family houses worth in excess of £3m. All the others are sub-divided into flats.
Here is link to fascinating piece of history about Eastern Terrace...
