Near the junction with Kingsway is The Ginger Pig gastro pub part of the local Gingerman Restaurant chain that also owns three others in and around Brighton. Originally known as the Ship the current building dates from around 1920 when it was rebuilt and set back due to the widening and straightening of Hove Street. The building it replaced had dated from 1702 and had been the local village inn. See http://regencysociety-jamesgray.com/volume12/source/jg_12_170.html for a view of the original building.
