Bedford Hotel/Sussex Heights

edit

The Bedford Hotel was replaced by a new Bedford Hotel as mentioned in its article; Sussex Heights was built on another site. Peter James (talk) 21:00, 26 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Good spot; I checked the original text I had written, and somebody had edited it since and I had not noticed the error being introduced. I will reinstate the original text. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 21:43, 26 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Falmer House

edit

I think the section on the University of Sussex should include a mention of Falmer House’s Grade I listing. It’s a,fairly rare, example of a 20th century Grade I listing . KJP1 (talk) 19:48, 24 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
