S.S. Brighton

The S.S. Brighton opened in 1934, billed as the largest covered sea-water swimming pool in the world. It was soon converted to a famous ice rink, home to ice spectaculars and the Brighton Tigers ice-hockey team.

The material below is drawn from the Sports Stadium Brighton Archive, a vast collection of memorabilia collected by Trevor Chepstow.
