Built in the early 1970s on the site of a former brewery which had opened in the 1830s as Bristol Brewery later becoming the original Kemp Town Brewery in 1933. One of two major Brighton breweries in the mid 20th century until it was purchased by Charringtons in 1954 though the name continued to be used until 1963. That year brewing ceased and the buildings were demolished in 1970. Originally Seymour Street ran from Marine Parade to St George's Road with the brewery straddling the road, however, the street was truncated with the construction of the new development. Viewed from Paston Place.
