As of June 2015,[1] there were 252 locally listed buildings in Brighton and Hove, a coastal city in southeast England. The city council defines locally listed buildings as "buildings, parks and gardens considered to be of special interest, because of their local historic, architectural, design or townscape value". As well as defining the criteria for inclusion on the local list, the council is also responsible for administering the selection and deselection process and updating the list.[1]

The city's local list includes historic buildings such as churches, houses and pubs; structures such as walls, railings and street furniture; and "historic parks and gardens".[2] All periods of the city's development are represented, from agricultural buildings of the 18th century to Brutalist structures of the mid-1960s, including flats, a town hall and a church. Two categories of structure—lampposts and letterboxes—are assessed as a group because the city has many examples with common characteristics.[3] Buildings and structures (also known in this context as "heritage assets") are assessed against criteria related to their historic and architectural interest and significance. Since the list was drawn up in 2015, some buildings have been upgraded to Grade II listed status, giving them national significance, while others have been demolished.

Planning context

[edit]
The council's assessment of 50 and 52 Greenways in Ovingdean state that the buildings meet all three "interest" criteria and one of the "significance" criteria.[4]

Heritage asset is an umbrella term used in national planning policy to describe "a building, monument, site, place, area or landscape identified as having a degree of significance meriting consideration in planning decisions because of its heritage interest. [The term] includes designated heritage assets and assets identified by the local planning authority (including local listing)".[5] Designated heritage assets include buildings and other features which have been recognised as nationally important and added to statutory registers: for example, Scheduled Ancient Monuments, historic wreck sites and Grade I, II* and II listed buildings.[6]

Locally listed buildings are defined as "non-designated heritage assets". They are granted this status by their local authority (Brighton and Hove City Council in the case of the city of Brighton and Hove) rather than by national government, and they do not receive additional protection against alteration or demolition. However, when planning permission is sought in respect of alterations to a locally listed building, its status forms a "material consideration" in the decision-making process: "greater emphasis will be placed on ensuring the proposed development conserves and/or enhances the special interest of [the locally listed building], including its setting".[6][7] Furthermore, the conservation of locally listed buildings is an objective of the government's National Planning Policy Framework.[7]

Brighton and Hove City Council started a review of the existing local lists in 2013. Two lists existed: one covering the former Borough of Brighton, and another consisting of buildings in the former Borough of Hove. Assets on both lists were reassessed to determine whether they still met the criteria, and the public were asked to nominate buildings they considered worthy of listing.[3] A draft list was then drawn up, consultation was undertaken with the public and other interested parties, and the finalised list was adopted on 18 June 2015. The council will undertake reviews at five-yearly intervals, reassessing the assets on the list and seeking additional nominations.[1]

All assets on the list have to meet at least two criteria for interest and one for significance. There is also a non-mandatory communal value criterion:[8]

Interest criteria[9]
  • Architectural, artistic and design interest: this relates to the aesthetic value of the asset, based on its artistic or architectural merits.
  • Historic and evidential interest: buildings associated with "a notable individual, group or historic event of regional and/or national importance", or which demonstrate how Brighton and Hove developed, fit this criterion.
  • Townscape interest: this criterion covers local landmarks, architecturally important buildings outside conservation areas, and buildings within conservation areas which stand out from their surroundings because of their architecture or building materials.
Significance criteria[10]
  • Rarity and representativeness: this covers heritage assets which are unusual in the city in relation to their form, architectural style, building type or date, or which represent "the legacy of a particular individual, group, architect or company".
  • Intactness: heritage assets which retain all or most of their original features (or elements which identify the stages of their development), or which are still used for their original purpose, fit this criterion.
Communal value criterion[10]
  • This non-mandatory criterion reflects how a building "forms a source of local identity and/or distinctiveness for the community" or "retains commemorative, symbolic and/or spiritual value".

Alterations to the list

[edit]
This garage in Kemptown has been upgraded from locally listed to Grade II-listed status.

Two buildings which were on the 2015 revision of the local list have subsequently been upgraded to Grade II status and are now granted statutory protection. They are 25 Montague Place in the Kemptown area of Brighton,[11] now listed under the name Former electric bus garage and re-charging station for the Brighton, Hove and Preston United Omnibus Co Ltd, 25 Montague Place, Brighton,[12] and the former Dyke Tavern in Prestonville,[13] now listed under the name Former Dyke Road Hotel, 218 Dyke Road, Brighton.[14][Note 1]

The former school building at 6 Locks Hill in Portslade has been demolished and replaced by houses.[15] Medina House on Hove seafront was demolished in 2018 and replaced with a new house of a similar design.[16]

Local context

[edit]

Nearly 40 of the city's locally listed buildings are pubs. Two have been converted from other uses: All Bar One (2–3 Pavilion Buildings) is a former newspaper office,[17] while the Bow Street Runner was originally either a police station or a fire station.[18][19] Pubs built next to the railway stations at Hove (The Station),[4] Portslade (The Whistlestop Inn),[20] Preston Park (The Station Hotel)[4] and London Road (The Signalman) are all on the local list,[13] as are three in the immediate vicinity of Brighton station (The Grand Central,[20] The Queen's Head and The Royal Standard).[21] Large purpose-built pubs of the interwar era on new residential estates are represented on the local list by the Downs Hotel at Woodingdean[22] and both the Ladies Mile Hotel[23] and the Long Man pub in Patcham.[22] Of the same era are several rebuilds of older premises—the Admiral at Elm Grove,[24] and the Brunswick[25] and the Ginger Pig[26] in Hove—and the newly built Good Companions at Brighton[13] and Queen Victoria at Rottingdean.[27] Most of the locally listed pubs date from the second half of the 19th century, though: again they are either rebuilds of even older premises (such as the Bear Inn on Bear Road,[23] the Jolly Brewer on Ditchling Road[13] and the Albion in Hove)[28] or contemporary with their residential surroundings. Examples of the latter include the Chimney House in the Prestonville area,[29] the Cleveland Arms near Preston Park,[28] the Fiveways[13] and the Hollingbury[30] in Hollingdean and the Horse and Groom,[31] Islingword Inn[21] and Montreal Arms[32] in the dense terraced streets northeast of the city centre. Similarly, the late Victorian terraces of the Poets Corner area of Hove ***REF FROM ENC H&P*** features the locally listed George Payne[17] and Poets Corner pubs.[11]

Many other types of building and structure are represented on the local list. The early 19th-century gate piers associated with the Grade II-listed 8–9 Cavendish Place, with their intricately detailed ironwork, are included,[28] as are two rare 1950s petrol pumps outside a now disused garage at Seven Dials.[18] Railway infrastructure includes a road bridge in Hove[33] and a cattle arch at Portslade,[34] both built when the Brighton–Shoreham railway line opened in the 1840s. A 19th-century stone marker on Elm Grove showing the parish boundary of St Martin's Church is on the local list,[24] as are a pair of bollards of the same era in the churchyard of St Nicholas' Church[13] and two sets of railings on Hove seafront.[35] Foredown Tower on the South Downs above Portslade is now a camera obscura but was originally the water tower of a now demolished isolation hospital.[33]

Parks, gardens and open spaces can also be granted locally listed status. Examples in Brighton and Hove range from the formally planned gardens at the set-piece 19th-century residential developments of Park Crescent,[29] Clifton Terrace,[28] Brunswick Square,[18] Adelaide Crescent and Palmeira Square[32] to cemeteries[23] and former burial grounds,[13] and from parks such as Dyke Road Park,[13] Hove Park[36] and Blakers Park[17] to the extensive stretches of informal open ground in central Brighton at Victoria Gardens[4] and The Level.[13]

Work started in 1930 on Savoy Cinema, designed by that company's in-house architect F.C. Mitchell. ABC Cinemas acquired the company in the meantime, and the new cinema was opened on 1 August 1930 after further architectural work by W.R. Glen. It was ABC's second largest cinema and the largest in Brighton, with 2,567 seats. The "monumental" curved main entrance had glazed terracotta and faience and a huge vertical sign, while the floodlit south entrance faced the seafront and Palace Pier. It showed the world premiere of Brighton Rock, but by 1975 it was too large and was subdivided into four cinemas. Renamed The Cannon in 1986, it closed in 1999 and has been converted into a casino and restaurant. The two façades are mostly unchanged, and much Art Deco detail survives. [37][38]

Originally named Abinger Villa, this was built by Frederick Peters (whose brother bought the land in the 1860s) for himself and his wife, who was from Abinger Hammer in Surrey. The road was later named after the house, which was shown on OS maps of 1873 and c. 1890. It is stucco-fronted and has ball-and-finial decoration to its porch. The two-storey façade has a three-window range with canted bay windows to the ground floor. [32][41]
Adelaide Crescent Gardens and Palmeira Square Gardens Hove
50°49′31″N 0°09′50″W / 50.825146°N 0.163872°W / 50.825146; -0.163872 (Adelaide Crescent Gardens and Palmeira Square Gardens, Hove)
Adelaide Crescent and Palmeira Square were part of an ambitious plan to create a "second Kemp Town" west of Brighton. Development was slow, but by 1870 these gardens were complete and "formed the centrepiece" of the composition. The southern section was more informally planted and laid out, but both had winding paths, lawns and extensive shrubbery. The northern part—originally the site of the ruined Anthaeum, designed for Henry Phillips by Amon Henry Wilds—has lost the fountain it originally had, and all railings were removed for the war effort in the 1940s. At this time the gardens ceased to be private property. [32][42]

Elm Grove
50°49′54″N 0°07′44″W / 50.831794°N 0.128789°W / 50.831794; -0.128789 (The Admiral pub, Elm Grove)
A pub stood on this site near the bottom of Elm Grove from the 1860s, when that road's development began. It was extended and redesigned in about 1934 to a Neo-Georgian design which on stylistic and date grounds suggests John Leopold Denman as the architect—although there is no definitive evidence he was involved. The six-bay façade is curved and has entrances in the outermost bays set in trapezium-shaped doorcases. The roof is hidden behind a parapet. The building forms a local landmark. [24][43]

50°49′40″N 0°10′20″W / 50.827761°N 0.172105°W / 50.827761; -0.172105 (The Albion pub, Hove)
Probably named after a ship—possibly the wrecked vessel of that name which lay on the beach at nearby Southwick in the 19th century—this pub (originally the Albion Inn and later called Albion Hotel) was in business by 1854. Tamplins Brewery acquired it from the Brighton Brewery in 1900 and carried out renovations in 1912, including a red and black mosaic floor at the new central doorway and the green glazed tiling which still covers the ground-floor walls. The "rather beautiful" curved etched glass is also of this era and bears the Courage Brewery's cockerel logo. The three-storey building has canted bay windows to the upper floors. RAF Squadron Leader and author Lewis Brandon was landlord from 1965. [28][44]

A large and "good quality Victorian villa" of the early 1890s, this was occupied as a private house for its first 30 or so years by an Aldrington councillor and his family—during which time an ancient bronze celt was unearthed in the grounds. In 1920 it was purchased for £4,900 and became the Lady Chichester Hospital—a psychiatric hospital for women and children. Upon closure in 1988 it reverted to its old name and became an NHS mental health daycare unit. In 1997 the original Victorian decoration was restored in a major refurbishment. [45][46]
The Alibi pub

Hove
50°49′31″N 0°10′37″W / 50.82515°N 0.17701°W / 50.82515; -0.17701 (The Alibi pub, Hove)
St Aubyn's Hotel (called The Alibi since April 2002, closed in 2015 and the subject of a redevelopment proposal in September 2016) was added in 1908 to the northern end of a group of 1830s houses called Victoria Terrace which were designed by Brighton architect Amon Wilds. It replaced the Traveller's Joy pub (c. 1858; built by the Vallance and Catt Brewery) which had in turn superseded The Bun House, a bakery "famous in the locality". The Tamplin Brewery's took over the Traveller's Joy in 1899, and their in-house architect Arthur Packham was responsible for the rebuild. It is a three-storey stucco-faced building, whose copper dome forms a local landmark on its corner site. Exterior decoration includes swags on the dome and pediments above the first-floor sash windows. [34][47]
[48][49]
Alma Cottage Portslade
50°50′33″N 0°13′10″W / 50.84238°N 0.219556°W / 50.84238; -0.219556 (Alma Cottage, Portslade)
The cottage, which "juts out somewhat awkwardly" in South Street in the old village of Portslade, was named after the Battle of the Alma (1854) and was occupied by 1861, when the Peters family (locally prominent market gardeners) lived there. A spacious three-bedroom house with two storeys above a basement, it is stuccoed and has a hipped roof laid with slate tiles. The door is set between slightly projecting pilasters. [20][50]
The Ancient Mariner pub

Aldrington
50°50′07″N 0°10′58″W / 50.83524°N 0.182744°W / 50.83524; -0.182744 (The Ancient Mariner pub, Aldrington)
This was built as The Rutland on Rutland Road in the Poets Corner area of Aldrington in 1896 to the design of Samuel Denman, father of prolific Brighton architect John Leopold Denman. It is contemporary with the houses and other buildings on the street. The Smithers Brewery were the first owners, then it passed to the Tamplin Brewery in 1929 and remained with them until they ceased to trade in 1964. The two-storey pub occupies a corner site and has two identical façades with a chamfered corner topped by a timber-framed gable. The sash windows on the first floor contrast with round-arched openings at ground-floor level. [30][51]
Arundel House Hove
50°49′44″N 0°10′07″W / 50.82898°N 0.168496°W / 50.82898; -0.168496 (Arundel House, Hove)
"One of the most distinctive buildings in The Drive, and indeed in Hove as a whole", this block of flats was also one of the first purpose-built apartment blocks in Hove: it dates from 1898, when it was designed and built by a Mr Barnes (possibly Joseph D. Barnes, who worked on buildings in Portslade around the same time). The Free Jacobean style used for the four-storey is block is rare in the city; the former Municipal Technical College (1895–96) in Brighton and Roedean School (1898–99), both Grade II-listed, are other examples. On the south side is a prominent, slightly projecting tower with a castellated parapet and oriel windows. These and all the other windows have large mullions and transoms. The building is of red brick with some terracotta and pale stonework. [52][53]

Astra House

50°49′20″N 0°09′05″W / 50.82224°N 0.151501°W / 50.82224; -0.151501 (Astra House, Brighton)
The New Club—a mid-1870s building in the Palladian style—made way for this ten-storey block of flats in 1938. There are shops on the ground floor and 62 dwellings above. In contrast to its predecessor, Astra House's style combines elements of Neoclassical, Victorian and Art Deco architecture. The yellow-brick walls have five-storey projecting bays of stone. The first and second floors, encasing the shopfronts, are of the same material; the brick and stone "contrast ... to good effect". The top three storeys are set back and have balconies. [35][56]
Barclays Bank, North Street Brighton
50°49′25″N 0°08′30″W / 50.823638°N 0.141787°W / 50.823638; -0.141787 (Barclays Bank, North Street, Brighton)
A "sombre Classical monolith" on the north side of Brighton's principal commercial street, this was designed by the firm of Denman & Son between 1957 and 1959. It represents a very late use of that architectural style and "contributes greatly to the street scene". The façade is of stone, and brown brickwork and ashlar are used elsewhere. [45][57]
6–10 Beacon Court Ovingdean
50°48′57″N 0°04′33″W / 50.81595°N 0.075866°W / 50.81595; -0.075866 (6–10 Beacon Court, Ovingdean)
Ovingdean Grange is the Grade II-listed manor house of the large, rural parish of Ovingdean. It had various farm buildings, including two large hipped-roofed flint and brick barns of the 19th century which were converted into houses in 1985–86. New houses in a similar style were built in the grounds at the same time.[Note 2] The old buildings retain most of their original appearance and layout, despite changes associated with their residential conversion. [4][58]
The Bear Inn pub

Bear Road
50°50′17″N 0°07′26″W / 50.837926°N 0.123886°W / 50.837926; -0.123886 (The Bear Inn pub, Bear Road)
The original inn on this site on the east side of Lewes Road dated from about 1800 and was associated with bear- and badger-baiting. It gave its name to Bear Road, the steep road running eastwards towards Brighton Racecourse, and by extension to the whole of the surrounding area—a largely residential district of terraced houses. The present building is late 19th-century and has two matching gabled elevations facing the two roads, separated by a gabled entrance bay. Each gable has mock timber framing. [23][59]
3 Bedford Place Brighton
50°49′26″N 0°09′16″W / 50.823912°N 0.154452°W / 50.823912; -0.154452 (3 Bedford Place, Brighton)
The house was built in the early 19th century, along with most of the houses in this road and surrounding squares, and is similar to its Grade II-listed neighbour at number 2 (image). It has three storeys, a basement and a bow front of which the upper two storeys project beyond the rusticated bow of the ground floor. A semicircular cast-iron balcony survives at first-floor level. [18][60]
Blakers Park

Preston Park
50°50′35″N 0°08′17″W / 50.843036°N 0.138049°W / 50.843036; -0.138049 (Blakers Park, Preston Park)
Formally known as the Blaker Recreation Ground, the 4.44-acre (1.80 ha) park covers a sloping site south of Preston Drove and was laid out in 1893–94. Mayor Joseph Ewart opened it on 3 November 1894. It takes its name from Sir John Blaker, 1st Baronet, who gave the land and who became Mayor after Ewart. There are long paths, tennis courts, a play area and extensive southward views to the sea, and much of the original layout has been retained. [61][17]
Blakers Park Clock Tower

Preston Park
50°50′33″N 0°08′16″W / 50.842542°N 0.137871°W / 50.842542; -0.137871 (Blakers Park Clock Tower, Preston Park)
Sir John Blaker, 1st Baronet also paid £1,000 for this clock tower to be erected as the centrepiece of the park. It was unveiled on 15 September 1896 by Blaker himself in his new role as Mayor of Brighton. It is of "elaborate decoration and delicate design", built of brick and green-painted iron and is in the form of a four-stage square tower, rising to 50 feet (15 m) to the gold-painted dolphin weathervane. The Blaker baronets' monogram is also on the tower. [61][17]
Bollards at St Nicholas' Churchyard West Hill
50°49′28″N 0°08′41″W / 50.824567°N 0.144763°W / 50.824567; -0.144763 (Bollards at St Nicholas' Churchyard, West Hill)
A footpath slopes upwards from Dyke Road past Wykeham Terrace and into the south end of the churchyard of St Nicholas' Church. There are Grade II-listed bollards at the south end, and a similar pair at the north end are on the local list. They are fluted columns with a Gothic design and pointed octagonal caps—an "unusual ecclesiastical design" which reflects their proximity to the church. [13]
29–30 Boundary Road Portslade
50°49′54″N 0°12′28″W / 50.831577°N 0.207844°W / 50.831577; -0.207844 (29–30 Boundary Road, Portslade)
This "grand pair of houses", originally Buckland House (number 29) and Kenmare House (number 30), existed before Boundary Road was named in the early 20th century. At the time this part of Portslade was a high-quality, principally residential area—different from its present commercial character. Brighton and Hove's longest established solicitors firm Howlett Clarke occupy number 29. The semi-detached houses are treated architecturally as a single villa with ground-floor shopfronts and two storeys above, paired recessed entrance porches and canopied iron balconies. [18][62]
[63]
Boundary stone at Elm Grove Elm Grove
50°49′54″N 0°07′23″W / 50.831555°N 0.123044°W / 50.831555; -0.123044 (Boundary stone at Elm Grove, Elm Grove)
This small, round-headed, flat-fronted boundary marker is set into the pavement halfway up Elm Grove on the west side, outside the later Elm Grove Primary School. It shows one of the boundaries of the former district of St Martin's Church on nearby Lewes Road. Its inscription reads "BStMDC 1875"; an arrow marks the exact boundary. [24]
Boundary wall to The Rotyngs Rottingdean
50°48′34″N 0°03′35″W / 50.809395°N 0.05966°W / 50.809395; -0.05966 (Boundary wall to The Rotyngs, Rottingdean)
The flint and brick wall, with bright red brick laid in horizontal bands, is the only surviving part of Rottingdean School. Built in 1894, it burnt down 70 years later and was demolished; housing now occupies the site, and the wall separates this development from the main Falmer Road. Apart from the creation of a new entrance to the cul de sac, the wall is intact and retains its "well designed entrance and detailing". [33]
Bow Street Runner pub Brunswick Town
50°49′32″N 0°09′36″W / 50.825447°N 0.160057°W / 50.825447; -0.160057 (Bow Street Runner pub, Brunswick Town)
This "particularly small" pub in one of Brunswick Town's side streets took its present name in the 1960s, but the building dates from a century earlier. Sources differ as to whether it replaced the old Brunswick Town police and fire station or whether the old building was in fact converted into a pub. Its original name was The Station, commemorating the supposed link. The three-storey building has a single-bay façade with twin entrances at ground-floor level and a bay window to the first floor. The frontage is "unusual", and few small-scale back-street pubs of this type have survived in the city. A major interior refurbishment was carried out in 1989. [18][19]
Brackenbury Primary School (old building) Portslade
50°50′22″N 0°13′01″W / 50.83937°N 0.216819°W / 50.83937; -0.216819 (Brackenbury Primary School (old building), Portslade)
Portslade's Church of England school was established in a house in or before 1796, then gained a permanent building on South Street in 1841. A new school opened later on Locks Hill: Hannah Brackenbury of Brunswick Square donated money and bought the site (former glebe land associated with St Nicolas' Church) in March 1871, and construction continued until May 1872. The builder was Brackenbury's housekeeper's brother, and the school was designed by Edmund Scott—also responsible for the locally listed St Andrew's Church and Portslade Cemetery chapels, which were all designed in the same Gothic Revival style using flint, and the Grade I-listed St Bartholomew's Church, Brighton. St Nicolas' School, as it was known then, was extended several times in the 19th century. A new school was built to the north in 1967 and the 1872 building now forms part of the Brackenbury Primary School. [23][64]

This was opened in 1987 in the grounds of the Grade II-listed Hanover Chapel, which was built as an independent chapel in 1825, became the Brighton Presbyterian Church in 1847 and merged with the nearby Union Chapel's Congregational community when the latter closed in 1972. The "robust and heavy" building, designed by John Wells-Thorpe, has a yellow-brick lower section below a tall façade of vertically ribbed concrete. The style has been described as "quite harsh", but the building forms an effective contrast to the chapel, to which it is attached back-to-back. The buildings together are used as a United Reformed church and community centre. [45][65]

This was originally the burial ground of Hanover Chapel, which is now part of the Brighthelm Centre complex. Some of the land was lost in 1845 when Queen's Road was built; the raised pavement on the road's west side is the burial ground's original boundary wall. The site was acquired by the council in 1884 and was maintained as a burial ground until 1949, when it was converted into a public garden: the gravestones were dug up and transferred to the outer walls. It is one of the few open spaces in this densely built up part of Brighton. An entrance gateway from Queen's Road was created in 1989. [28][67]

The church was designed in 1964–65 by Overton and Partners (scheme architect Bev Pike) to accommodate Spiritualists who had previously used a former Baptist chapel nearby. Its distinctive, "starkly unperforated" windowless exterior of vertically laid concrete blocks has a "sinuous" curving shape: the building consists of a kidney-shaped section and a smaller oval section linked by a flat-roofed entrance block.

In Brighton and Hove, the Jewish population associated with the Movement for Reform Judaism grew rapidly in the 20th century. This new synagogue was provided for them in 1967. The foundation stone was laid on 17 July 1966; it also shows the equivalent date in the Hebrew calendar, 29 Tammuz 5726. The "distinctive modern design" contrasts with its residential surroundings. The building, designed by Derek Sharp, is of brown brick and has a large round-arched entrance canopy, three domed sections on the roof and extensive areas of stained glass. [17][69]

This is the city's oldest and largest cemetery, and has been called "one of the most delightful spots in the whole of Brighton" because of its heavily wooded, gently sloping and well sheltered situation: a guide book called Strolls in the Brighton Extra Mural Cemetery was published in 1880. The cemetery was established in 1851 by a private company founded by a group of public figures including Amon and Amon Henry Wilds, John Cordy Burrows and Horatio Nelson Goulty. They bought a large area of land east of Lewes Road from the Scabe's Castle Farm estate. There are many elaborate buildings, tombs and memorials, mostly in the Gothic Revival style; many are listed buildings. The cemetery is now council-run. [23][70]

A fire station was built on this prominent site at Preston Circus in 1901. Graeme Highet's "restrained Modernist" brick and Portland stone building, which curves gently around the road, replaced it in 1938. Sculptor Joseph Cribb provided carved reliefs for the main doors, which sit below a canopied entrance. [17][72]

This "splendid" former grammar school stands at a prominent road junction behind iron gates bearing the emblems of the Borough of Hove, Borough of Brighton, East Sussex and West Sussex. These date from 1911–13, as does the Neo-Georgian/Queen Anne building itself. Samuel Bridgman Russell was the architect. The red-brick college has an "impressive symmetrical frontage" flanked by wings and joined by a series of staircases. Local architect John Leopold Denman designed a library extension in matching style in 1935. [36][73]

A pub contemporary with the rest of the Brunswick estate was situated on this site at its western edge for a century, but in 1938 it was demolished and rebuilt in a different style, almost certainly by Tamplins Brewery's in-house architect Arthur Packham. [25][27]

This "well-executed example of a modest late-19th-century chapel building" dates from 1876 and was designed by James Barnes in the Early English Gothic Revival style for a Primitive Methodist congregation. In 1895 it became the Brighton Railway Mission, and the building now houses an independent Evangelical congregation. The exterior is of yellow-brown brickwork and has a group of three lancet windows below a gable, flanked by pilasters with pointed finials. railway mission is inscribed on a panel below the windows. The outermost bays have symmetrical entrance porches with steep gables. [34][75]

From the early 19th century a "dust yard" (rubbish dump) existed on Hollingdean Road, between the Lewes and Ditchling Roads, and people were employed to collect rubbish and night soil and deliver it there. In May 1886, a "dust destructor" was built to incinerate rubbish—a policy which continued until 1952. The ashes and clinker were then used in construction work. Most of the buildings associated with the destructor were demolished and the site became a council depot, but this red-brick building survives as a "rare survival of often overlooked city infrastructure": it has been converted into a canteen for depot employees.

An ancient cattle drove (much of which is preserved as a footpath or in road alignments) runs northwest from the sea to Portslade village and on to the South Downs, crossing the West Coastway line near Portslade station. Its diagonal route can clearly be traced in the vicinity of this cattle arch, which was provided by the London and Brighton Railway when the branch line to Shoreham was built in 1840. The interior brickwork was damaged by an arson attack in early 2019; it was restored later that year and now features a large mural by a local artist. [34][77]

This Early English Gothic Revival style chapel was designed in Horatio Nelson Goulty in 1867 for Congregationalists. It is a grey stone building with a steeply pitched gabled roof and stands on a corner site. Ancillary buildings are attached. Originally called Cliftonville Congregational (and later United Reformed) Church, it took its present name in 1980 when it merged with the congregation of the former St Cuthbert's Presbyterian Church (subsequently demolished).

Challoners Farm was the farm linked to the ancient Manor house of Rottingdean. Although many buildings of agricultural origin remain in and around the village, "Challoners Mews forms the only largely unaltered farm complex" which can be seen easily. The low two-storey buildings are grouped around a yard and have been converted to four houses. Although some alterations have been made, they retain their flint walls and tiled half-hipped roofs. They were extant by the 1830s. [28]

This small building of 1856 contrasts with the surrounding stuccoed Victorian/Regency building stock in this part of Kemptown: it has knapped flint walls, prominent red-brick dressings and string courses, Gothic-style Tudor arch windows, and a steeply pitched tiled roof. It was built as a National school, was later a school associated with nearby St Mark's Church, then passed to The Nautical Training Corps. [28][40]

The pub was historically named The Marquess of Exeter and was in existence by 1896; it may be older, as Upper Hamilton Road was laid out with houses from 1887. It is a double-fronted two-storey red-brick building on a corner site, with prominent chimneys on the tiled roof. Both elevations are of four bays; on the Upper Hamilton Road elevation, the rightmost (easternmost) bay projects forward below a gable whose tympanum features "highly decorative plasterwork" of the Marquess of Exeter's coat of arms; the centre two bays of the Exeter Road elevation project in the same way below an identical gable. Original sash windows have been retained. [29]

The Mile Oak estate's first Anglican church, a tin tabernacle erected in 1936, was replaced by this distinctive Modernist building by Clayton, Black and Daviel in 1967. Work began in June 1966 and the church was dedicated on 28 October 1967. Construction cost £25,000. The walls are of brown brick with tall, narrow horizontal windows, and the sharply sloping monopitch roof has tall, tapering windows. [20][81]

The chapel was designed in 1877–78 by in the Gothic Revival style architect J.G. Gibbins for Congregationalists. It became a United Reformed church in 1972,[Note 3] then after its closure was used for a short time by other religious groups before being sold for residential conversion in 2015. The work to convert it into six flats did not alter its external appearance. There are small boundary walls of flint, and the chapel walls are also of flint. There is a steeply pitched gabled roof laid with slate, and at the corner is a short tower topped with an octagonal turret. The main façade has an elevated porch with a steep gable. On the side elevation, each bay is separated by a buttress. [28][61]

These three shop units have stood on this sloping site near Preston Park since the mid-19th century and have been little altered. This makes them a rare survivor in this area. Victorian details include first-floor sash windows, modillions and corbels supporting cornices, and original tiling around the deeply set-back door of number 21. The tiled roofs have been renewed.

This is a large late Victorian pub and hotel on a prominent corner site, set in an area of contemporary but generally smaller residential buildings. Originally called The Cleveland Hotel, it existed by 1896; Cleveland Road and Lucerne Road, to which it also has a façade, were being built up with houses throughout the 1890s. It was operating specifically as a pub from the 1910s. There are two floors and an attic storey; the upper part and most of the Lucerne Road elevation are roughcast, while other parts are rendered. The entrance bay projects slightly and has a pedimented double doorway with two windows above. [28]

This is a terrace of eight cottages built perpendicular to the main road (Falmer Road) in 1896. It is a symmetrical composition: each house has flint walls with prominent brick dressings, dormers in the attic and slate roofs, and the end houses have two-storey bay windows with a gabled dormer above.

This terrace of three cottages was formed from outbuildings of Manor Farm in the 1930s and originally faced the farm track: the road itself was laid out later. The walls are of flint, but Mock Tudor features such as leaded light windows, half-timbering, brickwork and render have been applied. There are also several prominent brick chimneystacks. [13]

The semi-detached cottages are similar to their Grade II-listed neighbours in Tudor Close but are not as old: they date from the early 20th century. Their Mock Tudor features include herringbone brickwork, half-timbered upper storeys, prominent gable ends, catslide roofs and leaded lights. [13]

These detached houses were built around the same time (before 1930), earlier than their neighbours, and are similar in style. They have many features of Mock Tudor architecture, such as steeply pitched roofs of tile, mock half-timbering, prominent mullioned windows and gabled bays. Number 39 is "particularly prominent in the streetscene" and is l-shaped; number 41 (image) has a single long façade parallel with the street. [13]

The Brighton Downs Estate Company was formed in 1913 to develop land northeast of Brighton Racecourse as a housing estate. Work on the Downs Estate (soon renamed Woodingdean) began after World War I, and this large pub and hotel was built at a prominent corner site at the Warren Road/Falmer Road junction. Its car park was the estate's first bus terminus. Sources vary on its opening date: either 1927 or September 1925. The two-storey building has a jettied upper floor with timber framing and a tiled roof with downs hotel painted on it. The exterior is rendered. [22][86]

This was originally Goldstone Villas Methodist Church: it was built for Hove's Primitive Methodist worshippers in 1878. It closed in 1933, one year after the Methodist Union. After a brief period (1964–68) as a Christadelphian meeting place under the name Cliftonville Hall, it was converted into offices in 1968 by Ted Cullinan. It is a tall two-storey stuccoed Neoclassical building with tall arched windows at second-floor level and four full-height pilasters. [4][89]

The building was originally a house and dates from the mid-19th century, like many of the houses in the area; but in 1921 local architects Clayton & Black were commissioned by Brighton's Christian Science Society to convert it into a church. The northernmost two bays became the entrance area, and the five bays to the right (south) form the church itself. These bays have tall arched windows separated by heavy pilasters; the entrance has smaller windows set below a very elaborate pediment. [11][91]

This pub and hotel, originally called the Stanmer Park Hotel, was built before 1901 as the centrepiece of a newly developed residential area. It occupies a prominent street corner and has a mix of materials: render, blueish and red brickwork, clay tiles and imitation timber framing in the three gables. The windows are set in large arched surrounds. There have been few alterations. [13]

The firm of George Baines and Son, prolific architects of Nonconformist (especially Baptist) churches, designed this flint, brick and terracotta corner-site chapel near London Road railway station in 1894–95. There are several stained glass windows, and there is a tower and spire at the corner. A similar flint and terracotta boundary wall separates the chapel from the street. The chapel is similar to their later Gloucester Place Baptist Chapel, with which Florence Place united in 2010 in a partnership called "One Church Brighton". [33][92]

This church was designed by Leonard Keir Hett in 1952–58 as a second Anglican church within the parish of All Saints Church, Patcham. It has many of his characteristic features: brown brickwork, a stubby tower, arched windows and some Arts and Crafts elements. In particular, there are similarities with his earlier St Andrew's Church at Moulsecoomb, also on the local list. The church was declared redundant in 2006 and was bought by the Elim Pentecostal Church. [18][93]

Also known as the French Protestant Church or, in French, L'église française reformée, this tiny chapel behind the seafront and next to the Hilton Brighton Metropole was built in 1887 to the design of J. G. Gibbins at a cost of £1,535 to serve French-speaking Protestants, especially fishermen. Declining congregations forced it to close in 2008, and it is now a house. The walls are of red brick, and there is a steep slate-tiled roof with a lantern. There is only one other French Protestant church in England, the French Protestant Church of London in Soho. [21][95]

The gate piers now stand on their own: the gate between them was removed when 8 and 9 Cavendish Place were converted into a hotel. They are probably contemporary with the building, a Grade II-listed pair of houses which date from around 1829. They are of cast iron and have intricate patterns, including zig-zags and sunbursts. The westernmost pier (pictured) is fully intact and undamaged; there is some damage to the other. [28]

When Hove was a single-street village, its inn was located at the southeast corner of the street close to the sea. Its first mention came in 1578, when it was recorded as an unlicensed alehouse. Sources agree that it was the first Ship Inn, a name first recorded in 1702 when a new building was erected on the site. It was later rebuilt, but an accident involving gunpowder partly destroyed it in 1794, after which it was rebuilt again. Road widening in 1914 resulted in the inn being demolished and rebuilt in a new Tudor Revival style further back. The architect was Thomas Garrett. The West Street Brewery of Brighton owned the premises until 1929, then sold the pub to another local brewery, Tamplins, who ran it until 1963. It retained the name The Ship Inn until the early 21st century. The first floor has three half-timbered gables of equal width, and set above the entrance is a cornice with a plaque displaying a ship.

The pub was built in 1939 for Tamplins Brewery and has been attributed to their prolific in-house architect Arthur Packham. Its style has been described as Neo-English Renaissance, but with distinctive patterned brickwork which places it "clearly [in the] 1930s". There are identical southwest-facing and northwest-facing façades joined by a canted single bay from which a tall chimneystack (flanked by decorative urns) rises. The entrance was originally in this bay but has been moved. The ground-floor windows are arched; those above are either square or in the form of a stretched hexagon. [13][97]

This chapel was built in 1904–05 for a Bible Christian Methodist community.[Note 4] E.J. Hamilton, who designed several chapels in the Sussex area around this time, was responsible for the large (400-capacity) Early English Gothic Revival-style building. It was surplus to requirements following the Methodist Union of 1932, and was sold to a charitable organisation in 1947. It is built of flint with stone and brick dressings. [11][98]

This was designed in the Baroque style in 1925 for the local Tamplins Brewery, probably by their in-house architect Arthur Packham. Now a pub with a theatre upstairs, it served as a railway hotel for Brighton station, which is opposite. The curved corner, mullioned and transomed windows and copper dome make it a local landmark.

Prolific local architects Clayton & Black designed this distinctive and prominent shopping arcade in 1924, and it was altered ten years later by Garrett & Son. "Unmistakably Art Deco" and resembling the prow of a ship, the curved arcade occupies a corner site facing Dyke Road, Western Road and the top of North Street—to which it "form[s] an effective stop"—and has strong horizontal lines contrasting with tall vertical windows. Its construction coincided with a major widening scheme on Western Road. [22][102]

There was a pub on this prominent corner site by 1848, but it was extensively rebuilt and redesigned after the locally significant Tamplins Brewery acquired it in 1874. Architectural features of that era are combined with "an overall early 20th-century Edwardian/Arts and Crafts style". The large corner dome forms a landmark on the major south–north Ditchling Road.

This pub and hotel was built in 1935 as the centrepiece of the Ladies Mile Estate in Patcham, which was laid out after 1928 when the Borough of Brighton expanded. It has been attributed to the architects Friary, Holroyd and Healy, and has touches of Art Deco outside (on the symmetrical brick and tile façade) and inside. Many original features survive, and the interior is classed by the Campaign for Real Ale as being of regional importance. The building has been described as "a modern interpretation of a country pub". [11]

This terrace of four cottages pre-dates the Mile Oak estate, which was built around it from the 1930s onwards. The houses are early 20th-century and stand well back from the road, retaining some of the rural character they had before the area was suburbanised. The doorways are arranged as two pairs under projecting tiled porches, and each house has a sash window at ground-floor level (except number 277, which has two). [11]

These semi-detached cottages were designed in 1900 for workers at the new Brighton Corporation Waterworks which was built at the same time on the adjacent farmland of Mile Oak Farm. The waterworks was demolished in 1961 and the Brighton and Hove Bypass now runs through the site; a modern pumping station replaced it, but the houses survive. They are simple rendered two-storey cottages with hipped roofs and chimneys. [11]

This is an integral part of the terrace of houses at 14–17 Montpelier Road, the other three houses of which are listed at Grade II. Number 17's listed status was rescinded because the original windows had been replaced. The building dates from the mid-1820s and is of three storeys with a dormer window in the attic space above. It has a full-height (three-storey) bow and a stepped entrance with a fanlight above. [11]

Built in 1880, this large five-storey yellow-brick building replaced an earlier brewery in Portslade village and stands at the main crossroads, forming a "striking landmark". The tall chimney bears the date 1881 and d&s, representing brewers Dudney and Son: the brewery was built for John Dudney. The top storey was added in the 1920s. After brewing ceased, the building passed into commercial use. In 2017 the building was converted for residential use: 48 flats were created inside and some office space was also provided. [20][109]

This building belonged to Grange Farm, on the edge of Ovingdean, and was originally used for shearing sheep and later for threshing (the threshing door survives despite the building's conversion into a house). Few alterations have been made, although some windows have been inserted. The building is mostly of flint with some red brickwork and a tiled half-hipped roof. [36]

Portslade Fire Brigade was formed in 1900. Eight years later a site was found for their permanent fire station, which was designed by the Borough Surveyor A. Taylor Allen and built by Ernest Clevett in 1909. It opened on 3 November 1909, but was surplus to requirements when East Sussex Fire Brigade was formed in 1941 and became the brigade's storeroom. It passed into commercial use in 1972. The "attractive-looking structure" is of white brick with extensive and elaborate terracotta decoration. [28][110]

This cottage is now in the middle of a terrace of newer buildings. It dates from the early 19th century (possibly from 1815, as indicated on a terracotta tile above the entrance) and has two storeys with bow windows, an offset arched entrance and attic space with a gambrel roof in which a modern dormer window has been inserted. The front wall is of cobblestones. [36]

Parker Anscombe designed this mission hall in the Renaissance Revival style in 1890. It has been used by the Church of Christ denomination since the early 20th century (certainly by 1918). The façade is stuccoed and there is a central parapet with a roundel inset with the chapel's name. Despite the building's date, it "still display[s] a late 18th-century/late Georgian style".

The Patcham estate was developed on former agricultural land on the slopes of the South Downs northeast of Brighton in the early 1930s, after the creation of "Greater Brighton" by Brighton Borough Council in 1928 expanded the borough's boundaries. To publicise the new development, this Art Deco/International Modern-style clock tower was erected. The four-faced tower is of pale stone. It is the newest of several free-standing clock towers in the city; the others date from the Victorian era. [11][113]

In its original form, this was built c. 1862 on a cruciform plan as a National school. Several extensions have been made since. It is of flint with brick dressings and a steeply gabled roof with curving bargeboards. The original windows have been replaced. The council describes the building as a "good simple example" of a Victorian National school using "a local style and materials". [36]

Alderman Herbert Carden bought this stretch of downland from the Marquess of Abergavenny's estate in 1928 and presented it to the Borough of Brighton for use as recreational land. It was laid out as a garden with flowerbeds and some structures (a stone temple and a pergola) bought from the British Empire Exhibition. [36]

These petrol pumps were installed in the early 1950s outside an older building whose ground floor had been converted into a garage—believed to be one of the first petrol stations in Brighton. The "globes" on top which would have advertised fuel have been removed, but the structures are otherwise intact. They are described as a rare survival, especially in their inner suburban location.

This street-corner pub, very different in style to the surrounding terraced houses of the same date, was built in 1886 and altered to its present form in 1895.

This is the only surviving feature of the former Portslade House estate and farm in the centre of the old village. It is a two-storey, three-bay, stucco-faced villa set back from the street and little altered. It existed by 1875, and was briefly used as a school later in the 19th century. [20]

The "florid façade" of this large stuccoed pub is coterminous with the widening of Queen's Road, which took place in 1878. The building has three storeys; above the pub entrance on the ground floor are bay windows with balconies and an ornate frieze, cornice and parapet (which hides the roof). At the top is a pediment inscribed with the queen's head. The north façade, directly opposite the railway station, was hidden by other buildings until 1935. [21][114]

This is a large former pub (converted with little alteration in 2013) on a prominent sloping site at the top of Elm Grove. "Well-detailed and picturesque", it contributes significantly to the street scene, forming a landmark in long views.

The hospital, now converted into flats, was built in 1871[Note 5] to replace a smaller hospital opened three years earlier on Western Road. Thomas Lainson was responsible for the elaborate Queen Anne-style red-brick and terracotta building, which contrasts with the stuccoed Italianate surroundings of Clifton Hill and Montpelier. The main elevation is of three storeys with large bay windows at first-floor level. The northern wing dates from 1927 but is identical in style. [13][116]

The pub was in existence by 1859, although its present appearance is attributable to the late 19th century or even c. 1900. The "strongly vertical" Free-style brick, stone and terracotta façade—four storeys high but narrow, with just two bays—contrasts with the surrounding stuccoed buildings. At top is a curved gable with a stone inscription the royal standard below it. Two columned turrets topped with cupolas rise from the corners alongside the gable. [21][114]

"An eclectic mix of design elements", influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement, contribute to the architectural interest of this large semi-detached pair of houses, which existed by 1910. The roofline and fenestration are complex, with twin gables facing Sackville Road and a mixture of bay and oriel windows, some with original mullions.|[20]

The parish church of the interwar Moulsecoomb estate dates from 1934, replacing temporary premises of 1922 (a former Army hut) and 1931 (a second-hand building moved from Lewes). The new church opened on 23 June 1934, 14 months after the foundation stone was laid. L. Keir Hett was responsible for the cruciform brown-brick building, whose roof resembles an upside-down fishing vessel–reflecting Saint Andrew's occupation as a fisherman. It was the first church he designed. There are elements of the Arts and Crafts style, contrasting with the "monolithic" tower at the front. [27][118]

The police station dates from about 1908 and has a wide nine-bay, two-storey brick frontage with a sandstone portico. The East Sussex County Council crest is above the doorway. The one-storey section to the rear includes a decontamination unit added during World War II. An original police telephone box also survives, and few alterations have been made to the interior. [20]

A chalybeate spring was discovered in the 18th century, and gardens were laid out around it. After the spa closed, the site was repurposed as a pleasure garden and, from 1908, as a council-owned public park, which it has been ever since. Various structures, including an "unusual and striking" dovecote and ornate terracotta entrance gates, contribute to its character. [20]

This distinctive early 20th-century five-storey house is an unusual feature in this part of Hove, standing between a gault brick terrace and smaller stucco-faced houses. Original features include a first-floor balcony with a canopy above, sash windows, and the bargeboard of the gable. [45]

The church was built between 1872 and 1875 to serve the Prestonville area, developed mostly in the 1860s with middle-class housing. Architect John Hill designed it in the Early English Gothic Revival style. The walls are of bright red brick, and there is a short corner tower with a spire which forms a landmark in the street scene. The north aisle was added in 1882 to the design of J.G. Gibbins.

This is the only pre-20th-century building on the postwar Coldean estate: it was originally an 18th-century barn (probably dating from the 1780s) with later additions, forming an l-shaped complex. The buildings were "sensitively restored" for use as an Anglican church in 1955 by local architect John Leopold Denman. They have flint walls and half-hipped roofs; the original doors have been replaced by windows. [28][121]

The churchyard of Brighton's historic parish church has the graves of many prominent residents of the 18th and 19th centuries: Phoebe Hessel, Amon Wilds, Martha Gunn, Sake Dean Mahomed and Anna Maria Crouch among them. No new burials were permitted after 1818 as the churchyard was full: this prompted extensions to the north in 1824 and to the west in 1841 (parts of this extension[Note 6] are Grade II-listed, and the remainder is locally listed as St Nicholas' Garden of Rest). Now a "pleasant green space" with mature trees and retaining its original flint walls and brick-paved pathways, it retains "the character of a rural village church[yard]" despite its central location. [13][125]

St Nicholas' churchyard was extended west of Church Road in 1841 in a scheme by Amon Henry Wilds after both the original churchyard and its northern extension ran out of capacity. Even this extension was full by 1853 and no longer permitted new burials. It now forms a separate space designated as a garden of rest: many of the gravestones have been moved to the boundary walls, but most of the table tombs are still in place. The original flint boundary walls also survive. [13][126]

This was built as the Railway Hotel—a hotel and pub serving London Road railway station, which stands opposite—and was built at around the same time (1877). It is a two-storey building of painted brick with a tiled roof and prominent quoins. The entrance is flanked by pilasters and an entablature. There has been little external alteration. [13]

The terrace of three houses is of two dates: the earliest two were built by 1839, and the taller central house was in place by 1870. They were built for farm workers and are placed at a right angle to the road. The whole façade now appears to be a single composition, having been rendered and painted. Each cottage has a small flint-walled front garden. [36]

William Nevill, 1st Marquess of Abergavenny owned much land in Patcham parish in the 19th and early 20th centuries. This group of three cottages, bearing an a monogram above the entrance to the centre cottage, dates from 1909 and was built for farmworkers on the Abergavenny estate. The centre house steps forward slightly and has a gable flanked by large chimney stacks. All three entrance doors have gabled timber porches. The houses are set prominently on an elevated bank. [34]

This is a terrace of 12 houses dating from the 1850s or 1860s, when this road was developed, but are designed in an early 19th-century Classical style. Their two-storey two-bay façades have round-headed entrances and a single window at ground-floor level, with an Ionic pilaster-flanked window above this and a blank opening next to it, above the door. Above this is a parapet with mouldings. There is rustication across the ground floor. Some of the first-floor windows have had iron balconies added. The road was the northern boundary of Brighton parish and borough until 1873, so these were the most northerly houses in Brighton for some years. [34][43]

This medieval barn was associated with the historic Patcham Court Farm. It has been converted and subdivided for residential use: the significant alterations caused it to be removed from the statutory list in the 1990s, having previously been Grade II-listed. It was built in at least three stages: prior to 1550, c. 1550 and c. 1610. It has 19 bays, making it one of the longest barns in England. [28]

This church has had several names and owners since it opened in 1900 with the name Rutland Hall. Planning permission was granted in April 1896 and construction started on 11 October 1899. It was a Congregational mission chapel linked to the Cliftonville Congregational Church in Ventnor Villas, Hove; William Allin Hounsom, a businessman and longstanding member of the congregation, and its minister Rev. Ambrose Spong founded it. It was sold for £2,000 around 1934 to pay for the new Hounsom Memorial Church in Hangleton. Later owned by Plymouth Brethren (who called it Rutland Gospel Hall), it is now used by Baptists. William H. Nash designed the single-storey terracotta and brick chapel, which has twin arched windows flanking an entrance porch with paired lancet windows in a recessed arch above. [30][51]

This three-storey Italianate building, stuccoed with rustication, pedimented windows and sash windows, was built as a house in the mid-19th century but has been in commercial use since a shop unit was built on the former front garden around 1900. It was a branch of the London and Provincial Bank, then became a post office; in 2005 it became a shop. It is prominent in the streetscene because of its height, corner location and the "elaborately decorated shopfront" which has been little altered. [22]

A narrow (two-bay) three-storey shop unit of the interwar period, this stands on a corner site and is of a much smaller scale than the surrounding buildings, such as the neighbouring Mitre House. The dominant feature on the rendered exterior is the pair of first- and sexcond-floor windows: moulded, recessed and with decorative panelling between them. There are similar windows on the side elevation. [22]

This "unusually palatial" Classical-style building was for many years a single shop unit. Designed by architects Bromley, Cartwright and Waumsley in 1927–28 for Boots the Chemist, it opened on 29 November 1928 and included space for a restaurant and an orchestra. These were accommodated on the upper storeys, which are slightly recessed behind four two-storey Ionic columns supporting a heavily dentilled cornice and pediment. A main post office was also located in the building until 1966, and after Boots moved to North Street in 1979 the shop became a Virgin Megastore. It now houses branches of McDonald's and Argos.

This was designed in 1926–1930 as a large branch of Stafford's, a hardware store. By 1990 it had been split into separate units, including a SEEBOARD showroom for electrical appliances, and it now has a branch of Poundland. Featuring elaborate and "elegant decoration" on the exterior, including cartouches with the Stafford's monogram, round dormer windows surrounded by swags, small bronze "torches" protruding from each pilaster, it is a "rather Continental Classical-style building" which contrasts with some of the contemporary surrounding stores on this part of Western Road.

Next to the former Stafford's store but contrasting in its height, "blocky American styling" and painted Portland stone walls, is this shop built in 1931 for British Home Stores and attributed to architects Garrett and Son. By 1990 it was the C&A department store, and its present occupant is Primark. There are three groups of strongly vertical windows on the upper storeys, separated into two equal-height panes by metal panels with three "bold Classical motifs" picked out in contrasting paint above. The central motif originally showed bhs and the year 1931. [22][103]

This villa-style house was designed by John William Simpson in 1904. Twenty years later Edwin Lutyens extended and altered it for its new owner, his friend Victoria Sackville-West, Baroness Sackville. The building was "cruelly mutilated" in the 1950s by being divided into flats. It is characterised by large chimneys, a roughcast exterior and a sunken rose garden outside (by Lutyens); the design responds to the difficult site, which is sloping and exposed. [52][129]

One of the newest buildings on the local list, dating from 1974, this community hall forms three sides of a courtyard in the former garden of The Grange; the fourth side is formed by a 1920s studio designed by Edwin Lutyens.[Note 7] The hall was designed by Michael Blee and Partners and "provides a modern interpretation of the architecture of [the] traditional agricultural buildings" which characterise Rottingdean: it is weatherboarded, flint-walled and tile-hung.

The building was converted into flats in the late 20th century (work on this was started in 1988) but was originally a social club called the Windlesham Club with bowling greens and other facilities. It was designed in 1907 by T. Garrett in a loosely Arts and Crafts style. The pebbledashed and rendered brick exterior has gables above each bay. An "unusual" and complex projecting porch encloses the arched entrance. Some of the windows have leaded lights and mullions. [13]

This small cottage sits behind the main building line on Wyndham Street and is older than the other buildings: it existed by 1870 and is probably mid-19th-century. The upper storey is faced in tarred cobblestones with some brickwork, and the roof is tiled. The original doorway survives behind a modern porch. [22]
