Weymouth Reference Library

Saturday, July 21, 2007

From our local studies collection we have found a few references.

In 1958 Councilor Wallis wanted it called the Royal Pavilion.

In November 1958 it was referred to as the New Ritz.

On Pg 4 of the Echo 11.3.1959 there was reference to a competition for naming it.



On the 12.3.1959 in the Entertainments and Beach Committee minutes there is a reference to this competition.

In March 1960 it was referred to as Weymouth Pavilion.

We, Weymouth Reference Library, cannot however, find any material regarding a winner of the competition or a special naming ceremony.
