Like me I suspect that many never stopped calling it the Palace pier, but good news

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Good news.

 

[severnside gull]

Too damn right. Stuff the referendum. That's democracy at work right there!

We get to see PALACE in giant letters. Can you guess why I prefer Brighton Pier.

We have a palace, unlike that lot up the road, who burnt theirs down.

It hasn't reverted to the original Palace Pier but Palace has been added to Brighton Pier making it Brighton Palace Pier.

Better than nothing I guess.

Now all we need is whopping great signage highlighting THE LANES and NORTH LAINE.

'You can hear that roar from Brighton Palace Pier!'

In a week of great politically uncertainty this is a small glimmer of hope.

The small print says the the pier will be know as 'Brighton Palace Pier'.

Good, annoyed me for along time

It's always been the Palace Pier, nothing to do with pikeys, something to do with it being palacial when it was built I suspect.
I know I live in the past, I still give directions to the dolphinarium

 

[Marty___Mcfly]

'Brighton Palace Pier' is a bit of a mouthful. They want designs for the sign- any ideas?

Nothing to do with it being next to a palace then?

 

[wellquickwoody]

Crystal Albion Pier would be as relevant.

I think some people forget the Royal Pavilion was once a royal palace.

Hadn't forgotten, just didn't sort of know!
Only time I'd been near it is when we were dragged round whilst on a school trip......many, many seasons ago

 

[Is it PotG?]

A £1 entry fee from 25 May.

Iirc there was a charge when I were a lad.

The admission fee will not apply to Brighton residents who have a Brighton Palace Pier local residents card.
