Following its closure and further acquisition by Harvey’s in 2013, with recent planning approvals in hand, a 14-week renovation project to refurbish the site has commenced.

The Bridge Inn holds a special place in the history and culture of Newhaven. Built in the 18th century as a Georgian residence, the Bridge Inn famously housed King Louis Philippe of France and Queen Marie Amelie after they fled during the French revolution.
