First time visitor's tour

The image below of Brighton's Daddy Longlegs has come to light through this website. The site is built around contributions from the general public. Jim Adams sent us this plate glass photo he found in his attic in Norfolk.

This picture is back to front. The lifeboat was at the Rottingdean end of the car, so when viewed from the landward side as this picture is, it should be on the left.  I am puzzled by what appears to be a horse on the car (at the left in this picture). Has anyone any theories?
