A public house that also has a couple of nightclubs in the basement and upstairs. A little personal history, on the morning of going out to document the storm of St Jude, I was leaving this establishment in the early hours of 16th October 1987 to find myself walking home to Hollingbury (A couple of miles) through the Great Hurricane and witnessing the start of the trees falling next to St Peter's church. A storm many times more violent than the one I set out to document on this morning.
