 James Gray: The old and the new Clarendon Road. A contrast between the homes of the 1880s and those of the 1960s. jgc_14_106

2018: The Borough of Hove Housing Department building on the corner of Clarendon Road and Goldstone Street has gone, as have the houses to its left (west).

In their place is a low, grey link block between Ellen House and Goldstone House. The furthest block of flats, Clarendon House still stands and Ellen House (under construction in the original image) has been completed. The north part of what was Goldstone Street (running north-south between Clarendon Road and Ellen Street – visible on the right of the original photo) has gone and there is now a pedestrianised passage linking the two streets. (Photographer: Alison Minns)

James Gray: This and the next photograph look from Goldstone Street towards Goldstone Villas showing the rear of the houses in Ellen Street and Clarendon Road. The gardens between seem surprisingly large for this district. jgc_14_107

2018: The houses in Ellen Street and Clarendon Road in the original image have all gone as has the part of Goldstone Street running north of Clarendon Road. There is now a pedestrian passage under a low grey link block between Goldstone House to the east and Ellen House to the west linking the two streets. The houses in the background, in Goldstone Villas, remain. (Photographer: Alison Minns)
