About Bournemouth

Until the early 19th century the area where Bournemouth now stands was just heathland where cattle grazed. Then in 1810 a man named Tregonwell visited the beach with his wife. She loved the area and persuaded him to build a house there. He purchased 8 1/2 acres and built a house with cottages for his butler and gardener.

Tregonwell can be regarded as the first inhabitant of Bournemouth although his house stood alone. He later bought more land in the area. He also purchased the Tapps Arms and renamed it the Tregonwell Arms. In 1820 the house was leased to the Marchioness of Exeter. It became known as Exeter House and gave its name to Exeter Street. Landowners planted pines on the heath, but there was no settlement at Bournemouth until 1837.
