Hangleton Manor
Steeped in history, Hangleton Manor, built in flint, is the oldest domestic secular building surviving in Brighton or Hove. This is not a central pub, but is nice and quiet, and the food is very reasonably priced. It is also dog friendly!

Getting There / Parking:
They are right on the edge of Hove, close to the South Downs just off the A27 which is a major coastal road.
There is disabled parking next to the front door, and there is a drop off point there as well, if you are coming by taxi.
-
Getting In:
The drive is covered in gravel which could be problematic for some wheelchairs.
There is a slight step to get into the pub, as the floor is uneven.
-
Getting Around / Facilities:
The furniture is not too big and can be moved if needed. There is a step leading from the main bar area, into the back of the bar, but there are no steps between the main entrance and the dining area. There is also a garden area which has a slight incline and no stairs from the car park. There are no other floors.
The lighting is fairly low, but cannot be dimmed. Music is not played, so background noise is low.
Menus are available in large print, but not Braille. Staff members are happy to read the menu out to you. The print is easily contrasted.
There is a unisex accessible toilet. It is small and only partly accessible, as the corridor leading to it is very narrow.
There are hearing loops.

Additional Comments:
All staff are given disability awareness training, and will bring food/drinks to the tables if required.
Serving both food and drink, it can be booked for all sorts of private functions such as weddings/civil partnerships and birthdays. Up to 100 people can be seated in the separate restaurant area.
It was built around 1540 - 1550 for Richard Bellingham who had acquired the Lordship of the Manor in 1538.
Inside there is interesting 16th Century panelling and floor tiles, Jacobean fireplaces and a fine Tudor plaster ceiling. The 'Commandment Room', which is now the restaurant, contains a Tudor version of the Ten Commandments carved on oak panels dating back 500 years.
