I'm really interested in the above named public house, as my grandparents
ran this pub in the 1950's , 1960's and 1970's. I spent many happy years
with my siblings in Brighton, my grandfather died in approx 1970, and in
those days a woman alone could not hold a licence on her own, from what I
remember, so my grandmother had to give up her beloved pub.
Their names were Bill and Dorothy Haylock, and my grandmothers niece ran the
pub in Madeira Place The St James's, her name was Jean Ward but I cannot
remember her husband's name.
In saying that my grandmother had a few sisters in the Brighton area, so I
know I have second cousins, but have no clue on names or even if they are in
the area still. I do visit Brighton, which I did last week, but the Aqarium
Inn was shut, is this long term do you know ? I can remember that the
Southdown Coach station was in Steine Street, as I remember walking through
to the shops through there, and I can remember seeing the Palace Pier from
the window, before they built the block of flats in front of it. *
