A crude establishment appears to have popped up in a popular UK holiday spot – leaving locals fuming.

The naughty shop was spotted on Sydney Street in Brighton.

An image shows the shop front with signage reading: ‘W**k Bank’.

Another photo reveals explicit images of women in the window of the building.

Passersby were left outraged by the nature of the name and imagery stating the design to be “degrading”.

The previous shop that operated at this venue was ‘Crosstown Doughnuts’, which closed in April 2024.

Now empty, the space is being advertised by Flude property consultants.

The building is reportedly equipped with a spacious ground floor, basement area and private rear garden.

Its current state is not likely to stay as the explicit imagery has now been removed from the window.

The design was reportedly made by an artist.

When approached by Jam Press, Flude Property Consultants declined to comment.

Members of the public have been left outraged by the shop’s design, as reported by Need To Know.

Hazel Lindsay said: “I’m sure people going past with their children will be impressed, not.”

Scarlett Mae stated: “This is disgusting and disappointing, we’re really treating women like this still and in the public?

“You should actually be ashamed, it’s so degrading.”

Another person added: “ When your innocent little ones ask questions about this, what to say? I’m sure there used to be rules against this sort of thing, it’s truly disturbing.”

Adie Donoghue said: “Sums up Brighton as a town currently.”

Daisy said: “How mature.”

One person referenced another recent development on Gloucester Road in Brighton.

A shopfront was named Katie Prices as part of an installation by Pattern Up – a parody of the celebrity Katie Price.
