About Westbourne
- Westbourne has a strong literary connection through Robert Louis Stevenson, who lived in the suburb from 1884 to 1887 in a house called Skerryvore on Alum Chine Road. It was during his time in Westbourne that Stevenson wrote The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, which he reportedly completed in a matter of days after dreaming the central idea. He also wrote Kidnapped while living in Bournemouth. The house was destroyed by a bomb during the Second World War, but a replica of the lighthouse that gave it its name stands in the garden as a memorial to the author.
