St. Albans Church was noted for its green copper spire. The church was built in 1877 as St. Michael's and All Angels and demolished in the 1960s.

Upper Parade

Christ Church featured prominently at the top of the Parade. Built in 1825 it was demolished in the 1960s having been in a poor state of repair.

Occupying a prominent location on the Parade, the hotel was considered to be the largest in Europe when completed in 1819.
