An office block built in 1990 and currently occupied by the Brighton and Sussex Family Court Hearing Centre. The building replaced a former omnibus depot and the Dog Tray public house which had been built in the 1930s as the start of a road widening scene in Edward Street that was not completed until the late 1960s. The Dog Tray pub was a rebuild of a much older beer house that was open by 1854. The Dog Tray is the name of one of the dogs in Shakespeare's King Lear; "The little dogs and all, Tray, Blanch, and Sweetheart—see, they bark at me."
