Southwick Square - I don't get it

[Insel affe]

It's not even a square, end of thread.... As mozza said in a song "a seaside town they forgot to close down"

It's also got a proper greengrocer (something Shoreham lacks), a baker, a butcher, a hardware store, newsagents etc - It's a classic British high st, I really like it.

This.
The butchers there is superb, I always get my BBQ stuff from there. Handy for the bookies as well. Useful little pet shop for supplies, and the bakers/deli does great fresh rolls. Whats not to like ? Shame Tomorrows World shut down though, I bought many a 2nd hand game from there in my time.

Knew there just had to be some snobbery on this thread though

Who would WANT to drive into Southwick..?

I went to Southwick Recreation Gound last weekend as my son was playing in a football match there, not far from Southwick Square.
Seems alright around that area.

If at a loose end and got five minutes to spare you can enjoy all the shops

I particularly like the BALLOON shop---have enjoyed many moments of indescribably joy in there

Butchers is quality, as is the greengrocer, couple of newsagent/convenience stores that provide good competition to each other. The oriental food shop is unique in the Brighton area I think, throw in a decent fi and chi shop, decent sandwich store, new funky coffee shop, big chemist and what is not to like? Oh, probably the really crap CoOp and the very weird Post Office. It even has TWO high street banks!

All this from me, an historical Mile Oak bloke who has to override the teenage rivalry with Southwick. By the way, according to The Young Ones 'Big Red Book', their definition of place names has Southwick down as a 'left handed waxxer'?
