Marine Hotel

The Marine Hotel on the corner of Bay and New Street, Brighton was Gordon's favoured watering hole during his time while residing at Brighton.

"Adam Linday Gordon

Poet and Horseman

Tethered his horse to this hitching post

During his residence in Brighton 1869 - 1870

A shining soul with syllables of fire

who sang the first great songs

these lands can claim (Kendall)

Preserved and dedicated to his memory by

The United Licensed Victuallers Association

20th October 1945"
