Marina Way
Image: © Simon Carey Taken: 11 Jan 2009
Opened in 1976 to provide access to the newly built Brighton Marina. Its construction involved the demolition of the small community of houses erected in 1860 at Rifle Butt Road which the new access route considerable widened and deepened. All that survives is the gas holder. The fire engine is probably returning to the station round the corner at Roedean whilst in the distance Wilson Avenue and the suburb of Whitehawk can be seen.
