A typical 30s style house …… but in North Street Brighton? Yes . When Braybons built the estate at Withdene they put a show house there on the corner of Princes Place . An excellent shop window. Later it was carefully painted dismantled and rebuilt on the estate . I believe they sold for about £895 .

:ohmy: That's my Brighton fact of the year. I knew nothing of that. I'm guessing it's mid-30s then. Still only the value of about £55k these days.

That house is now in Hillbrow Road, Westdene. I know because I viewed it 30 odd years ago when I bought my current house. Those 'porthole' windows now look into the garage

That is the most amazing fact of the day, but for WATFORD zero to then come back with the house as it is today blows my mind.
