Hello listers, Does anyone know where, if any exist, I can locate empolyees records for the above named hotel?One of our friends' s father worked there in the late1950's - 1960's.I am presuming that any records may be at Chichester but I may be wrong. Cathy Bonner member 14741

Cathy - some thoughts... There's a Butlin's Memories page on this hotel at http://www.butlinsmemories.com/hotels/oceanhotelsaltdean/index.htm which says it was sold to the Grand Hotel Group, but I don't know whether that organisation still exists. According to the BBC - http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/sussex/hi/people_and_places/history/newsid_8497000/8497085.stm the building is now owned by a company called Explore Living - http://www.exploreliving.co.uk/developments/grand-ocean/ Hopefully with a bit of detective work and a few emails you may be able to find where the records went, if they were not dumped in a skip, as sadly happens sometimes. My instinct would be to start with Bultlins - http://www.butlins.com/index.aspx as they ran it in the period you're looking at. Good luck!
