In 1836 Sir George Tapps-Gervis decided to create a seaside resort at Bournemouth. He appointed an architect from Christchurch called Ben Ferrey to design it. Villas were built for families to hire during the summer. Westover Villas were built in 1837-40 Tapps-Gervis also built the Bath Hotel in 1838. He also laid out Westover Gardens. In 1839 the Tregonwell Arms began to act as post office for the little community. By 1840 a little village had been built. In that year the stagecoach, which travelled from Southampton to Weymouth began to call at Bournemouth, a sure sign that the village had arrived.

Lived at Ashdown House,Forest Row, Sussex
"On Thursday evening last, an event took place near Aberffraw, Anglesey, which has thrown the family of John Fuller Esq.,
of Bodorgan, into deep grief. The second son of the late Sir G W Tapps Gervis aged fourteen, a nephew and ward of Mr. Fuller, who had arrived at Bodorgan about a fortnight previously, on a visit, was then missed; and, being a stranger to his locality his absence caused much alarm to the respected family, lest, in the darkness, he might have lost his way on the sands, and got within range of the tide. Every means that could be suggested were resorted to, but in vain, and after two days' ineffectual search, the most painful anticipations were realised by the discovery of the body of the poor youth in a running between Bodorgan and Llandwyn. It is supposed that, having become benighted, he had endeavored to take a short cut homeward, but that, being shortsighted he had wandered into the river.
