These remains are not often visible, as I have been back since and they have been covered over. So here they are , the remains of the Chain Pier. 1823-1896. R.I.P!
Photographed in September 2009. Just a mere 113 years later!
This is where the chains from the Chain Pier were embedded into the East Cliff.
I havent seen the remains visible for a few years but was very glad to see them on show again this February. One of the lowest tides of the year.
Chain Pier House on Marine Parade was once home to Captain Samuel Brown who created the Chain Pier.
This is believed to be the sundial which once sat at the end of the Chain Pier in a fenced off area.
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.
