I can remember there being 6 pubs in Worthing spread along about 200 yards.

Many a pub has vanished in Haywards Heath in recent times. Gone are The Sussex, The Ugly Duck, Liverpool Arms and Heyworth Hotel. Just recently in Lindfield the Stand Up shut down. Also missing is the Tiger in Lindfield that shut years ago.

Loads in worthing, the clifton, litten tree, flappers, the rivoli, yates' eden etc and I'm sure there must be a few more
I can't imagine anyone missing the clifton....

I'll look after the skirt
Loads in worthing, the clifton, litten tree, flappers, the rivoli, yates' eden etc and I'm sure there must be a few more
Some dodgy old haunts in that list with the exception of the last two which were merely shit.

Arundel had, I believe, 26 pubs in the early 80's and is now down to around 12... Three Crowns and South Strand in East Preston, long since passed over to the other side. Oh and the Fletchers at Angmering station.

Yep but sold by dark star. Another local operator taken it on
Loads in worthing, the clifton, litten tree, flappers, the rivoli, yates' eden etc and I'm sure there must be a few more
Spaniard, Marine, Cissbury, Buckingham, Victoria, White hart, Maple leaf, Ship, Half brick, Cockle and bacon, Wigmore, probably more.
When i started drinking there were 10 pubs between the Balmoral Cider bar and the Marine, now 4.

The Sea House used to be such a busy pub. It is missed.

In the last 15-20 years Pulborough has lost The Waterside Inn, The Five Bells, The Red Lion, The Rose & Crown (Frog & Nightgown for a while?), And one other bar in the centre, opposite Hennings Wine Merchant, can't remember the name of it.

Dark star didnt own the Stand Up. They leased it off the former landlord, who put up the price of this lease which Dark Star decided they couldnt afford or wouldnt pay for. shame as they were doing really well there. Proper real ale pub. Hope it opens up again asap

Rose and Crown, Crowborough Whitehill, been gone around 20 years, converted to flats. Went there for live music, house band "Fat Max" were always good value, "English Rogues" were also regular performers. Landlord had a relaxed view as to the age of who he served and how long he served them for I recall.

a few decent old pubs in bognor have gone recently making way for flats and a tesco express despite there being 3 shops down the same road. me and my mates dont bother with pubs anymore. it used to be the kids outside with a pack of crisps and a coke and now the kids run riot inside whilst adults are smoking and drinking in the pissing rain. whats this country come to?

Come on!
I used to love a mini pub-crawl in Alfriston. 3 pubs within 50 yards.
