This is Duke's Mound in Brighton, around a mile east of Brighton Pier, which, as the Geograph website explains, "was originally the exit for Madeira Drive until it was extended to Black Rock." Behind it is the huge mass of the sea wall that was the first line of defense against the sea, enabling Marine Drive and the grand houses above to be built. Madeira Drive was the next step, preventing erosion of the base of the sea wall. As Geograph also explained, "The building on the right houses the electrical equipment used to power the Volks Railway [the 19th century electric railway that runs along the seafront for over a mile] whilst that on the left is used for seafront services by the council."
