Portslade and the 'chav towns' of Sussex

[StonehamPark]

Minor post coding details, Boundary Road is West of Portslade Station! (just)....

I always though it was Station/Boundary Road.

Station Road (obviously Portslade Station side) was Hove.
Boundary Road (Forfars, Tesco) was in Portslade.

Might be completely wrong though.

It's the opposite. Boundary Road Hove is BN3.
Station Road Portslade is BN41.

And there's an ELECTRIC FENCE down the middle in case the shell suited gluesniffers from WESTSIDE try and cross over in to YUMMY MUMMIES buying, er, KFC and Pound Shop stuff.

Maybe but its still in Hove.

While it may seem odd, Station Road Portslade is the non station side of the boundary. This is probably due to the fact that when originally constructed the station was west of the level crossing. It was moved to its present position some time later but the road names remained.

All went wrong when the Wimpy moved on.

It's not odd to me mate, I live 30 sec walk from the station!

Yup, twice the price of newhaven but I've not yet figured out why!

Portslade.

Next to Hove.
Nearer to Central Brighton.
Quicker on the train and bus to Brighton.
No incinerator.
No crap one way system.
No swing bridge holding up the already crawling traffic.

St Nick's. Was St Mary's the Catholic school West of the rec?

And don't forget Carlton Terrace - this is a road with 3 names. Exactly the same as Cat Stevens !

One of Cat Steven's names is Carlton Terrace?

St. Nicks.

Me too. 1963-66. Mrs Dinsley (the hut), Miss Smith. Who won the war in 1964?

I'm a bit older than you. 1957-59. Miss Broadbridge and Mr Slack.

I grew up in Crawley. It sucks massive balls. I hate the very mention of the place.

Really.!!

When did you grow up in Crawley and what parts are you talking about.?

All the people I know who grew up in the town during the 70s and 80s have really fond memories of the place.
Granted, its changed massively over the last 10 years and not for the better.Still ,growing up in the town a few decades ago was enjoyable.

Oh. You meant "ethnic minorities". I see.

Crawley: nearly 80% white British population at the last census. Does that reassure or disturb you?

Actually it's now 72,% white British.

And yes it does disturb me and I know it disturbs many other people I know.
