This card was sent from the museum in Seaford. The hotel name must be the Railway Hotel as in the 1911 Census it had listed a LV named Henry Harman (H.Harman is on the banner on the side of the building). Henry Harman was also listed as being at the Railway Hotel in the 1901 Census but not in 1891.

The rear of the card is badly damaged. The card was posted in Seaford on 11th July in a year ending in 0 (first digit has been torn). It is possible this is 1910 but could be 1920 however there is a Henry Harman who died in 1912 with the death registered in the Wycombe district. From the death index he was born in 1853 which is consistent with the 1901 & 1911 censuses. Therefore likely the card was posted in 1910.

What is more interesting is to identify the group of men. They are of mixed ages and the group appears to include two "men of the cloth".
