J. Smith & Son. Heating and Lighting and General Engineers was in business at these premises from c.1876/77 to the late 1950s.

Originally part of the ornate entrance to the Aquarium (now the Sea Life Centre). Removed in 1928/29.

A Parsons & Son builders were in business here from c.1908 up until recent times.

This building was originally The Gardener’s Arms pub, and owned by Smither’s Brewery. Smither’s signage was revealed briefly during renovations.
A selection of my photographs available mounted from just £10 each.

Work has now commenced on controversial plans to alter the traffic flow and accessibility of the area between St. Peter’s and Pool Valley.

Days are numbered for most of the buildings along Pelham Terrace, Lewes Road.

Demolition has started of the old Pink Coconut Night Club.

Built in 1933. Closed as a cinema in the late 1970s, it became a Bingo Hall. This closed in 1997.
A fantastic place to share your old Brighton pics and memories with other Brightonians.
