Photograph shows Grand Hotel in process of building. Balm Green was behind Barkers Pool on site of City Hall. The sign of a joiner and undertaker shows the name R. Moss. Prior to this, Robert Moss, whose residence was at 16 Monmouth Street, owned the Wentworth Temperance Hotel in Holly Street, where the Grand Hotel later stood. Robert Moss had one son and a daughter. He had a lifelong connection with Bethel P.M. Chapel in Cambridge Street and was choir master and Sunday School Secretary for many years. At the Anniverary Services he often entertained the members of the voluntary instrumentalists who accompanied the singing, to dinner and tea between the services at the Wentworth Hotel, being near to the Chapel.
