The first pub to appear here was in 1859 when it opened to capitalise on the newly canalized eastern end of Shoreham Harbour. The original building lasted until 1930 when it was rebuilt, see http://regencysociety-jamesgray.com/volume15/source/jg_15_080.html taken in 1927, when it was replaced by the current one. The pub retained the name Adur Hotel until 1997 when it initially became Kingsway 330 (After the official number on the address), then Blue Lagoon before acquiring its current name in 2015. The pub also contains a function room and offers bed and breakfast accommodation. The building itself sits on a former low lying cliff with the southern side extending downwards to Wharf Road, see Image
