Sent in 1900 to South Shields (an almost 5 hour drive from Cheltenham) in England.
On this card we have 'the Promenade' (top right) which dates back to 1818 in the height of the Regency period, with 'the fountain' (top left). 'Pitville Gardens' is on the bottom, which seems to be a misspelling of Pittville Gardens, part of a large estate created by Joseph Pittville in 1825 for the "rich & famous who came to live in Cheltenham". The estate includes a large ornamental lake and a pump room (as would befit a spa town). By 1894, the park was open to the general public. In the centre is the Cheltenham Ladies College (founded in 1854) a private boarding and day school for girls aged 11-18.
I know a bit less about this town in West Pomerania - not to be confused with Szczecin, the capital of West Pomerania. (including how to properly pronounce it!). Szczecinek was given town status in 1310.
The building in the top row middle, is the town hall with quite a large fountain. Most of the city was spared in WWII and the entire old town (middle row far right) is a national heritage monument to Poland. The image below that shows the Church of St Mary's. The statue may be of Adam Giedrys, an astronomer and tailor. The others seem to show various ways you can enjoy yourself in the town.
