Designed by Joseph Barker Wall and built in 1900 by John Pelling Goodwin, the Pelham Hotel opened in 1902. It is a landmark building with a commanding presence standing at a road junction. Three storeys, elevations of red brick with tile-hung second floor, five gables over double height canted bay windows, tall chimney stacks, classical style porch and heraldic-style plaque at the second floor level emblazoned with the hotel name and date under a pargetted pediment.

Originally a railway hotel for the Bexhill West Branch line facing Sidley station, the station closed in 1964 and was regrettably demolished in 1970.

It was designed to be a 'family and commercial hotel' with lounge, reception, coffee room, kitchen and meeting room on the ground floor with bedrooms on the upper floors.

It later became a public house until its closure in 2009 and is now a community hub and coffee lounge run by a Christian charity.
