Kensington Street
Image: © Simon Carey Taken: 21 Nov 2008
Small side street running between North Road and Gloucester Road and running parallel with Kensington Gardens. Many of the houses that once lined the western side of the street have gone with only a few remaining, the gaps used as car parking or access for the shops in Kensington Gardens. The street has been brightened by the inclusion of graffiti art produced by delarge in conjunction with Brighton council. The eastern side once housed the printing presses of the local paper, The Evening Argus (now just plain Argus), that remained here until the 1990s when it moved to an industrial estate on the outskirts of the city, the former buildings have been turned into apartments and shops, the window belonging to Wagamamas restaurant.
