This previously nameless little entry has now been named after the film "Quadrophenia" for which it acted as a location. Set in the 1960s in the Mod subculture, the film takes some of its characters from London to Brighton and, whilst riots go on around them, two of them consummate their relationship up this alleyway. Mod graffiti marks it out as a place of Mod pilgrimage.
