Description
The West Pylon is a stone structure built in 1928 by John Leopold Denman, located on the west side of London Road in Brighton. It is one of two pylons erected to mark the extension of the County Borough of Brighton. The pylon has a wedge-shaped plan, with the narrow end facing the road. Its two long sides and outer side are slightly concave, featuring flat panels on top, and it has concave-chamfered buttresses at the corners. The narrow end is designed as a tapering engaged column. Inscriptions and emblems representing Brighton and the County of Sussex are carved in relief on the long sides. The top of the pylon is set back all around and fluted.
