IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Cheltenham Place, BRIGHTON, BN1 4AB

A residential street that runs between North Road and Gloucester Road that was developed in the 1840s.

A narrow lane, running between Gloucester Place and Cheltenham Place.

Head west up North Road then south down Cheltenham Place then east down Gloucester Road. This right angled turn is at the bottom of the road originally prevented entering the northern edge of the Steine by existing houses. Gloucester Road was built up of small artisans cottages in the 1840s needed by the workers on the railway and industrial concerns in this part of the town.

Narrow thoroughfare that lies between Gloiucester Place, the A23, and Cheltenham Place. The wall on the right belongs to Image whilst the buildings providing the backdrop are the rear of premises on Queen's Road, the A2010. Vehicular access is only available for half of the street, the rest is pedestrianised.

Small side street linking North Road to Gloucester Road built in the 1840s and still retaining very small front gardens which is rare for this part of Brighton. The building on the right is a small printing works whilst the arrow chalked onto the street is pointing towards a small yard sale.

A former purpose built cinema that opened in 1933 and closed in 1977, becoming a bingo hall until that venture ended in 1997. The first floor was used for a while as a keep fit/dance studio but the building has largely been empty for the last decade as a series of plans for conversion have failed to take off. It was finally announced last week that the council have given planning permission to demolish the structure and build a new set of offices on the site.

Four years on from Image and not much has changed. A former purpose built cinema that opened in 1933 and closed in 1977, becoming a bingo hall until that venture ended in 1997. The first floor was used for a while as a keep fit/dance studio but the building has largely been empty for the last decade as a series of plans for conversion have failed to take off. The battle has been over whether to demolish the building or not. It was listed in 2000 and eventually required assent from the Government's Communities Secretary in 2012 to proceed with the demolition. Since then there has been the question what to do with the site with proposals for flats and offices coming to nothing. However, in 2015 permission was granted by the council to turn the site into student housing.
