On the junction with Middle Street. North Street was once a residential street that was cleared sometime in the late 1950s early 1960s and turned into warehouses and factories.

On the junction with Church Road. This is their old showroom having recently decamped further up the road to 92-98 North Street.

Small street linking North Street to Wellington Road, the A259. The area between Station Road in the east, Church Road in the west and St Andrew's Road to north was once a community of tight knit terraced housing that made up the settlement of Portslade-By-Sea. The vast majority were demolished in the 1950s as slum housing and the area given over to business units and small factories. Only a few houses on the southern side of the A259 along with Albion Street remain of the former district.

From the junction with North Street. Unlike other streets, except for the two warehouses at the junction with North Street the rest has retained its residential status.

Small side street linking Wellington Road to North Street. The area here was once known as Copperas Gap and a small residential district sprung up during the Victorian period to service the growing industries based around the new port of Shoreham. Officially renamed as Portslade by Sea in 1896 the community persisted until the 1960s when many of the small terraced houses were pulled down and replaced with industrial units.

Another remainder of the former residential district that was cleared in the 1950s. Near the junction with Church Road (B2139).

Probably a combination of depot, and office, this building appears to have come back into use since 2007. The adjacent advertisement is for a televised pre-election 2010 debate, bringing together party leaders Gordon Brown (Lab), David Cameron (Con) and Nick Clegg (Lib Dem). The 2010 General Election campaign saw televised leader debates, for the first time, in the UK. Image

A residential street linking North Street to St Andrew's Road. The only street that has survived from an era when all of the area between Station Road in the east, Church Road in the west and St Andrew's Road to north was a community of tight knit terraced housing that made up the settlement of Portslade-By-Sea. The vast majority was demolished in the 1950s as slum housing and the area given over to business units and small factories.

A memorial to the ferry service that once ran from the northern shore of The Canal to Portslade Gas Works on the southern side. The rowing boat was the quickest way for workers living in Portslade-by-Sea to cross over to work saving a forty minute walking journey around the eastern end of the basin. The memorial is on the junction of Wellington Road (A259) and Church Road (b2139), the latter can be seen in the background.
