NORTH GARDENS – THE ROSE AND CROWN INN

This picturesque little Inn in quiet North Gardens had a very long, if uneventful, history. It is not known exactly when it was built. North Gardens dates from between 1800 and 1820 and the Inn is mentioned in Baxter’s New Brighton Directory, published in 1822. For a few years in its early life it may have been purely a private dwelling, with later the inn built out over the long garden. Despite all the changes wrought to Brighton in 150 years, the Inn pursued its peaceful way, until at last the brewers decided to relinquish the licence. Date of photographs – 17 May 1970.
