Devonshire Place, BRIGHTON, BN2 1QB

A residential street running from St James's Street to Edward Street that was developed in the 1820s parts by well known architects Busby and Wilds. Tyson Place is the high rise in the distance.

An unlettered plate set in a square frame. Although not alone in this area, I can't recall noticing a square frame anywhere else.

Head south down Tillstone Street then west along Eastern Road until the crossroads with Upper Rock Gardens and Egremont Place is reached. The eastern end of Edward Street and prime example of how street widening has left original buildings on one side of the road and replaced it with the modern on the other side.

head north along Devonshire Place then west along Edward Street. The church is between Blaker and Grosvenor Streets and was constructed in 1964-65 to replace another in Mighell Street. The design is a figure of eight and the lack of windows on the street side give it a strange, mysterious feeling.

A residential road linking St James's Street with Edward Street that was originally developed in the 1800s but nothing now remains from that era. Much of the original housing was removed in the 1930s with the rest going in the 1960s. Small terraces have been rebuilt on the eastern side whilst much of the west is taken up with the high rise St James's Lodge. Tyson Place is the high rise block in the distance.

Linking Edward Street to St James's Street. many of the small terraced houses were demolished in the 1960s to make way for the High Street development whose high rise flats are visible to the right.

'T. W. Porter Star Foundry Brighton'. The foundry was on Bread Street, with an official address on Church Street. It closed in the 1900s. In 1890 the proprietor was A. Burstow. A plate with his name is shown in Image Whether Porter was in charge before or after Burstow has not yet been determined. I also have a suspicion ironmongers sometimes got the foundry to cast their own names on the plates, otherwise there were an awful lot of foundries about in some fairly small areas.

A residential road that runs between St James's Street and Edward Street that was first developed in the 1800s but has little of its original buildings remaining. On the eastern side in view the houses date from the mid 1990s, the previous ones demolished during the 1980s and then left as parking. All of the western side has been removed mainly in the 1960s to make way for St James's House another high rise block.
