Amazing photo. No Hollingbury estate but is that the Snipe pub?

I used to live in one of the houses on the right, just down the road from the Snipe. Not in the 1920s/30s though.

Really....

I am not a fan of Northern towns and Villages, they all look the same, grey and dreary

And not Brighton. And yes I know Shoreham and Portslade aren't really Brighton, but they are part of the same conurbation.

Shoreham obviously because I was born Old Fort Road, so that is ok.
because of that, I think the boundary should be the Saltings roundabout (Shoreham) heading west just before Lancing (urgh).
Now heading east the boundary should be St Dunstan's at Ovingdean, finally heading north it makes sense for anything north of the A27.

fair enough ?
