Blackbird Tea Rooms

Brighton Bits doesn't normally advertise but it is good to see an attractive old building 30 Ship Street nicely restored and put to an appropriate use.

One hopes it will succeed.

The two adjoining proerties to the left 28 & 29 Ship St. are Grade II listed:-
"Terraced houses, now shops. Early C19. Brick painted and stucco, roof obscured by parapet. 3 storeys, one-window range. Ground floor has late C20 shop fronts; upper floors have segmental bays and tripartite windows with sashes apparently of original design; the segmental bays appear to be very heavily renewed, despite the apparent survival of the glazing bars; parapet."
28 & 29 Ship Street

  1. Lovely, lovely build. Is that a bowed window? As a kid I used to think such windows were magical.
