Ross and Sons. The fashionable gentlemens and ladies outfitters. Hosiers, Glovers and Hatters. Established 70 years.
The gates at Park Crescent gardens in Union Road. These gates were once the gates belonging to the Floral Hall in Market Street.
The earliest record I could find for The Hat Box was 1912.
Captain William Pechell was killed before Sebastopol in 1855. His father George was an MP for Brighton for 25 years.
During the refurbishment of this pub an old sign was discovered under the paintwork.
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.
