Hanbury Arms

Drinking with Mr Punch

By Mike Stone, Entertainer

"This is the Hanbury Arms in Kemp Town, Brighton's Latin Quarter. It's a lovely building. It looks just like the Pavilion; it's got those lines and that little turret thing at the top. I used to drink there, with Mr Punch, when I lived in Kemp Town, and it's full of artists of every kind, from poets to Punch and Judy men."

Jan used to be a bar maid in Hanbury Arms. I drank in there sometimes and lived round the corner in Eastern Terrace. I was the caretaker at the halls of residence.

We drank here when Alan and Heather ran the place and Jan was the barmaid.
