The building was constructed in the early 19th century. It was altered and extended later in the century, and further altered in the 20th century. It was grade II listed in 1969. [1] The business was sold in 2020, at which time, it was a free house with two bars, a dining room, and six hotel rooms, along with two rooms used as accommodation by the owners. [2] In 2021, the new owners competed on the "Four in a Bed" TV show. [3]

At the rear of the building, a summerhouse was constructed in the 1930s, which was initially used to host the annual Egton Bridge Gooseberry Show. During the Second World War it was commandered as a first aid post, then after the war served as staff accommodation, an ice cream shop, and then a holiday let, before becoming a farm shop. In 2020, a wooden bar building was added. [4]

The pub is built of sandstone, and has a pantile roof with coped gables, shaped kneelers and ball and pedestal finials. There are two storeys and attics, a main front of four bays, a lean-to on the left, and a rear wing with two storeys and two bays. The central doorway has a shaped tooled lintel, to its left is a fire window, to the right is a canted bay window, the other windows are tripartite, and in the roof are two flat dormers with casements. In the right gable end is a relief "F" in a circular surround with keystones. [1]

The King and Queen is a pub in the seaside resort of Brighton, part of the city of Brighton and Hove. The present building, a "striking" architectural "pantomime" by the prolific local firm Clayton & Black, dates from the 1930s, but a pub of this name has stood on the site since 1860—making it one of the first developments beyond the boundaries of the ancient village. This 18th-century pub was, in turn, converted from a former farmhouse. Built using materials characteristic of 16th-century Vernacular architecture, the pub is in the Mock Tudor style and has a wide range of extravagant decorative features inside and outside—contrasting with the simple design of the neighbouring offices at 20–22 Marlborough Place, designed a year later. English Heritage has listed the pub at Grade II for its architectural and historical importance.
