Which is the ugliest building in Sussex?

The Brighton Centre The Brighton Centre

Standing at the gateway to Brighton, Anston House has long been an eyesore greeting thousands of people every day.

The feeling against the 13-storey tower was so strong that in a poll in The Argus in 2004, readers unashamedly voted it the ugliest building in Sussex.

But for those travelling or living near Preston Road, Brighton, there is good news.

After years of stalling, plans to demolish the red brick monstrosity are moving nearer to reality.

Now the hunt is back on to find a building or structure to claim the title of ugliest building in the county for its own.

What should take the title from Anston House?
