  • Join me for a bumper hour-long tour of Britain's greatest seaside city: Brighton! Located on a huge stretch of pebbles on England's south coast, Brighton has gone from small fishing village to modern-day metropolis on the back of a huge tourist boom in the Regency and Victorian eras, an industry that it still thrives in to this day!
    On our walk around Brighton, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including Brighton Palace Pier, Brighton Beach, the Royal Albion Hotel, the Queens Hotel, Quadrophenia Alley, Brighton Town Hall, The Lanes, Brighton Pavilion, Brighton Dome, North Laine, Komedia Brighton, Kensington Gardens, Sydney Street, Brighton Railway Station, former Hanover Chapel Burial Gardens, St. Nicholas' Church, Churchill Square, Brighton Jubilee Clock Tower, St. Paul's Church, Brighton Promenade, the English Channel, Grand Brighton Hotel, Brighton Metropole Hotel, i360 Observation Tower, Regency Square, and the remains of the West Pier.

    Good evening! And welcome to this bumper hour-long walk around the great seaside city of Brighton - once a small fishing settlement, and today one of England’s favourite coastal resorts, and a major metropolis home to almost 300,000 people!
    There’s so much history to see in and around Brighton, just a morsel of which we managed to visit on our epic tour of the city! But if you’re ever in Brighton for a full day - do take a longer walk along the seafront, where you can take a ride on the Electric Railway, and even a little further out of the city, see the spectacular chalk cliffs that line England’s south coast!

    As a born and raised Brightonian who now lives in the USA this video just made my day. Seeing all the places I remember from my childhood and early adulthood gave me so much joy. So much so that I am now making plans to bring my US born kiddos, and American hubs, home to Brighton for a holiday next summer! Thank you so much for this wonderful tour!

      I was born there and couldn't wait to get out. All the drug dealers, the mess, homeless living in the doorways, graffiti, awful council that is only interested in bike lanes, etc.

    Great little walk around my home town. I love it here. (Apart from the 'tagging' graffiti all over the place. There is, however, a lot of brilliant graffiti wall art around - just not the taggers).

    You are not quite right with the time ball, the timeball was dropped at 'midday' everyday to tell mariners the time so they could set their clocks to greenwich mean time, it went out of fashion when radio technology advance.

    What date was this.. I used to play with coloured Brighton beach pebbles - on the driveway of an uncle's house in Bridge of Allan, Scotland. They'd been trucked up there by a previous owner! Narration added post-production, the wise thing to do avoiding motor noise - though losing a little ambiance - overall often preferable.

      Obesity appears as one of Brighton’s main social and personal problems: the sheer wanton size of some of those manifesting their presence in the Laines recalls to mind the debate as to whether overweight airline travellers should pay for the adjoining seats they occupy. Can’t they go without eating once in a while!
