Looking up to the junction with Western Road. The street was built as part of the Brunswick Estate in the 1820s primarily as a service road. To the left is Burger Off a pleasantly named takeaway which lies conveniently near to a pub a few doors up called the Bow Street Runner, which apparently was once the local police station for the newly built Brunswick Estate which had become the Station Inn by the turn of the 20th century. The large building next door to the pub was built in 1855-56 and was the original town hall for Brunswick later becoming Hove's first town hall before that decamped to bigger premises in Church Road. The building is currently used as part of the campus for the Brighton Institute of Modern Music.
