In 1800, Brighton had 41 inns and taverns, and by 1860 there were well over 450, echoing the town's growth in popularity through the Regency and early Victorian eras. A recent resurgence of interest in real ale has also seen a welcome boom in micro-breweries, placing Brighton firmly on the beer-lover's map. Here, David Muggleton takes us on a tour of these watering holes, from the ancient Cricketers (allegedly continuously licensed since the 14th century) to the elaborate mock-Tudor King and Queen. Brimming with quirky tales and surprising facts, his carefully-crafted guide initiates readers into the fascinating history of Brighton's pubs.
