Brighton, West Pier c.1896

More about this scene
Brighton is the biggest and most lively and cosmopolitan of the Sussex resorts. The sea bathing and taking of salt water cures laid the foundations for the town's growth after 1750. After the Prince of Wales, later the Prince Regent, arrived, the town was established as a fashionable and lively resort. It eventually had two piers. This view shows the West Pier, now sadly derelict, in its heyday. It opened in 1866 and later was extended in 1890. The entrance pavilion on the left survives as the Old Brighton Rock and Candy Shoppe.
