Brighton Old Stein’s Victoria Fountain has returned after undergoing specialist restoration work.

The historic 32ft structure, also known as the Dolphin Fountain, is now being carefully re-assembled behind hoardings while the Old Stein hosts the Spiegeltent during Brighton Fringe Festival.

It was switched off in January last year after a number of structural problems were discovered – and a new reinforced concrete base has now been installed

The city council said work should be complete by June – with an unveiling later that month.
