====Bournemouth==== In 1938 the new owners of the [[Langtry Manor|Red House]] at 26 Derby Road, [[Bournemouth]], which had been built in 1877 by the widowed women's rights campaigner and temperance activist [[Emily Langton Langton]], converted the large house into a hotel, the Manor Heath Hotel, and advertised it as having been built for Lillie Langtry by the Prince of Wales, believing that the inscription 'E.L.L. 1877' in one of the rooms related to Lillie Langtry. A plaque was later placed on the hotel by Bournemouth Council repeating the assertion, and in the late 1970s the hotel was renamed [[Langtry Manor]]. However, despite the hotel's claims and local legend, no actual association between Langtry and the house ever existed and the Prince never visited it.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Anthony J.
