Location: Hastings, Sussex, England, United Kingdom
Built in 1827 as a luxury home by Francis Frederic North.
On 10 Sep 1884, Hastings Lodge was opened as Hasting Hydropathic Establishment, a health resort.
It looks to have been able to accommodate over 50 guests as residents
It was still open in 1893 when there was an [attempted robbery
By 1906 it is referenced as a "Roman Catholic establishment" in an article that says the use as a health resort was abandoned after several years trial.
Certainly by 1927 it is in use as a Convent by the Sisters of Notre Dame des Missions, when the Sacred Heart High School was reopened on Sep 15
