• 1954? The solid pavilion at Clarens Road is demolished to make way for a new solid pavilion.

• 1914 After Sea Point House was washed away, bathers had been using Milton Pool for bathing, up to 1914 when a solid pavilion was opened at Clarens Road.

• 13 July 1911 The bathing pavilion (known as Sea Point House & owned by a Mr H.D. Cooke) at the bottom of Church Road is washed away, with 30 feet long strands of kelp being swept onto Beach Road. Sea Point House was a "wooden building with cubicles above a rather primitive pool. There were seperate houses for men & women, a place where refreshments were served, and Mr Cooke's shop. It was not an impressive pavilion but the small population of those days was easily satisfied". Here is what an eye-witness had to say about the pavilion being washed away: "Old winter came along on Wednesday with a mighty leaden frown on his face and a bellow of south-west wind from his giant lungs. He whirled the sea into a tumbled riot of green-grey mounds, ever-changing in colour and formation. And the rocks round the coast bared their teeth and shattered the breakers in impotent gusts of spray. The storm had been brewing from July 11. It freshened, there were showers and the seas rose. On the thirteenth the elements burst in all their fury on the Peninsula. The waters dashed in over the railway line at Clarens Road and reached the gardens of houses on the seafront. Ballast was torn from under the rails. Telegraph poles along the beach were swept away like ninepins. People on the seafront heard a piteous howling and saw that a bull terrier was chained on the back verandah. One rescuer after another was driven back. Then an older man got into the building at great personal risk. It seemed ages before he reappeared with the dog. At three in the afternoon huge breakers were battering the bathing houses with dynamic force. Then one wave mightier than the rest fell on the building. It was the death blow. The boiling waters were a mass of beams, spars and household goods. Fortunately the premises were empty at the time as the lessee had vacated the place for the winter." Cooke's Pavilion wasn't rebuilt.

• 1895 The Mayor of Cape Town, Mr J.S. Langerman, opens the wooden pavilion (Sea Point House) and announces that there would be a special train running early in the mornings for bathers.
