I was a bit young to go into pubs in the late 70s, but I am interested in Brighton history, I thought I would look for some details on this pub as the story said that during the week the patrons would be dock workers and the occasional foreign sailors.
I thought North Road Brighton was nowhere...
The Clarence Pub was in North Street Portslade.
After reading the story in the opening post I thought this was about a pub in North Road Brighton, the story doesn't mention Brighton but it says North Road at the top.
