The owner of this shop had uncovered the signage in the past but it confused his customers so he covered it up again. In 2013 it was uncovered and the owner has decided to keep it on show.

The earliest record I could find for The Hat Box was 1912.

This plaque is to be found in the tunnel of the private gardens of Lewes Crescent.
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.
