Known to most of us as Homewoods Store. Homewoods set up shop here in 1936.


During the 1970s and 80s this was the Candy Box sweet shop, just across the road from Elm Grove school.

This shop was Harmony Carpets from around 1968. It was been a vacant shop for many years and has recently been converted into housing.
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.
