15:00 Just us two as customers. Main purpose of visit to Brighton to check on changes to the pub that may affect its CAMRA Heritage status. Had a most interesting chat with the Manager about the pub and its history.

The pub is found in Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 0JL.

Formerly named the Leconfield Arms and in that guise was a CAMRA Heritage pub of Regional Importance. Revamped and renamed as an Oirish themed bar. The only change to the structure is the removal of the 1930s bar back which has been replaced with three wooden barrel ends. The main bar has two old benches, there is a small snug behind the bar with hatchway service, and a 1930s bar counter. The floor is strewn with sawdust and discarded monkey nut shells.

We have visited this pub once, seen 3 different beers and tried 2 of them.
