These arches under the roadway known as railway approach, were something of a mystery. Originally there were 17 arches, each 14 feet wide, along the whole frontage of Railway Approach up to Denmark Villas. These arches had a depth of 30 feet, which carried them well under the road.
Mr J.R. Lidbetter, Builder of 7 Goldstone Road deposited the plans with Hove Commissioners on 25 May 1877, and the arches built soon afterwards.
Photographed February 1959. Now the site of Cliftonville Court, a large block of flats.
