Can anyone identify this "New City"?

I have about half a dozen postcards with views of "New City".

Three of these are shown below, others are internal views (so probably wouldn't help) but show the Dining Hall & Indoor Tennis Court .

No clues on the back - just have the usual POST CARD, For Correspondence & For Address - no reference numbers, printer's name etc.

Does anyone have any idea where or what New City is?

Thanks in advance.

Could it be a WW2 POW camp?

I think I've found it! - It was a holiday camp on the Sussex coast.

Although I can't match any pictures, the description sounds about right:

"The largest attraction was the 'New City' created by Sir Walter Blount, Bt., and opened in 1922 in the former seaplane factory south of the church. It was one of the earliest attempts to provide a self-contained environment for enjoying the seaside. There were c. 200 bedrooms, all with central heating and half with private baths, besides a garage for 100 cars; visitors without cars could be met at Barnham station. Almost every form of amusement was claimed to be catered for. One of the hangars accommodated a dance hall and another indoor tennis courts; there were also outdoor tennis courts, a putting green, and rooms for cards and billiards. Sand yacht racing and motor gymkhanas took place on the beach, and children's sports were organized. The New City had its own dairy, farm, ice generating plant, and mineral water factory, besides a laundry, hairdressing rooms, and lending library. By the mid 1920s it was said to be very popular with large numbers of 'distinguished' visitors."

I think you may be right. Some of the images in your link do show buildings with a "cylindrical" roof.

The images you showed seemed quite "basic" to me and reminded me of Eden Camp in Yorkshire (although I knew it wasn't there).

I'll maybe find out soon.

There's a request on the site linked to above asking for any information or pictures so I've e-mailed the images to them.

Hopefully they'll e-mail back with a yes or no.

Thanks for your interest.

Hi Newt

I've now got confirmation from the owner of the website linked to above that it is the same place.

Thanks for your interest.
