The Red Deer was situated at 279 Brighton Road. This large, rather impressive Victorian pub was one of a series of pubs along the Brighton Road that bus stops were named after. The next pub along, The Swan & Sugar Loaf, has also closed. The Red Deer had one bar converted to a club/disco in the 1970s - red paint, low lighting and a DJ booth.
