Built in 1880, the Hotel Anglesea stood 300 feet east of this site and hosted the first Borough Council Meeting on June 3, 1885. The hotel was 150 feet long with 50 rooms, but only two stories high so as not to obstruct the beacon of the nearby lighthouse. Plagued by financial difficulties throughout its short existence, it was destroyed by fire on October 17, 1895.
