A fairly recent development that straddles the old Brighton and Hove boundary that had been derelict for a number of years. A number of narrow terraces existed here until they were cleared in the 1930s and the site given over to the neighbouring Anchor Brewery which survived until the early 1950s with the buildings removed sometime in the 1960s. From that point a number of planning applications were made but none succeeded until the current one was agreed during the 1990s. Golden Lane itself was the original name of a small alley that led from Western Street to the Hove boundary which contained a pub and a smithy.
