Forming part of Thomas Read Kemp’s (1782-1844) vision for the luxurious estate of ‘Kemp Town’, Sussex Square was built between 1823-1827 by the renowned architect Amon Wilds and designed by Charles Busby. With distinctive Doric or Ionic porches, and ironwork balconies, the ornate design of the Square’s houses boast an elegant and eye-catching aesthetic. Subsequently, Sussex Square became an illustrious address favoured by nobility and celebrated intellectuals including Lewis Caroll, the author of the beloved Alice in Wonderland books. Having its own private gardens (with a tunnel granting direct access to the beach) and Grade I listed status, today Sussex Square upholds its reputation as a greatly desired residence within Brighton and Hove. Kemptown offers vibrant culture and fresh air in abundance with the seafront just a short stroll away. Within Kemptown Village and heading towards St James’s Street there are a variety of quirky boutiques, restaurants, cafés and pubs before leading to Brighton city centre and the North Laine. Transport links include good access to the A259 and A27 road networks and accessible bus services extend across Brighton & Hove.

  • 1807 20161223 Strategy Docume
    Regency Square Community Partnership Regeneration Strategy for Regency Square “Regency Square contains some of the finest examples of Regency architecture in Brighton. Built between 1818 and 1828 on a site known as Belle Vue Field, it is assumed to be the work of Amon Wilds and his son, Amon Henry Wilds, and was financed by Joshua Flesher Hanson as a speculative venture.” www.mybrightonandhove.org.uk Introduction Regency Square occupies a unique position on the Brighton seafront. On an axis with the West Pier, it has been a central part of Brighton life for nearly 200 years – and following the development of our newest seafront attraction - the British Airways i360, looks set to retain this key status into the future. There is however a need to renew and reinvigorate the Square to create a garden worthy of the place it occupies in the city's Regency heritage. The garden enriches the lives of the surrounding community, contributes to the wider city objectives, will be sustainable for the long term and complements the world class BA i360 attraction. As part of the planning consent for the BA i360, 1% of ticket revenue must be provided by BA i360 and used to secure “Environmental Renewal, Maintenance and Improvement Works” within the West Pier Area. It is estimated that this fund will direct around £30k per year to Regency Square garden for the lifetime of the BA i360. It is this resource which will support the regeneration of Regency Square as a coherent whole and underpins this proposal. The aim of this document is to set out a strategy for the regeneration of the square which obtains the best value from identified funding, includes proactive and collaborative engagement with the local Regency Square and wider Brighton and Hove community, and acts as a lever to generate and direct community capital and additional funding and sponsorship resources into the improvement of the square.

    Christ Church, Lewes United Reformed and Methodist The Tabernacle 1816-1829 Cliff Geering 200th Anniversary of the Tabernacle congregation 6 November 2016 Transcribed, edited and up-dated by Nick Armstrong, Alan Pett and David Smith Additional research and bibliography by Norman Vance November 2016 ©Christ Church Lewes This booklet has been derived from the notes and research papers left by Cliff Geering, who died in 1993 and was Church secretary from 1972 to 1977. They were given to the Church by his daughter Dorothy. This booklet is one of a series describing the Tabernacle, another gives an account of the Cliffe Chapel, the first Congregational Church in Lewes. They are published as part of the celebration of the 200th Anniversary of the founding of the Tabernacle congregation in 1816. The original sources used in the booklets are the minute and vestry books of the church, surviving letters and legal documents, and pieces published in the local press. These form part of the East Sussex Record Office collection deposited in The Keep, Woollards Way, Brighton, BN1 9BP. [[email protected]] Lewes at the beginning of the nineteenth century In the years after the Battle of Waterloo Lewes was even more of a county town than it is today. Most of it lay within the bounds of its ancient walls and much of that area was garden, orchard or paddock. Some houses followed the cobbled High Street beyond Westgate into St Anne’s; others reached past Eastgate and the Friars to the river. Over the bridge, the picturesque but not too healthy Cliffe High Street (or West Street) where the buildings almost touched across the narrow roadway, provided the only approach to the town from the East.

  • Brunswick Town Conservation Area Character Statement.Pdf
    Brunswick Town Conservation Area Character Statement Designated : 1969 Extended : 1978 Area: 38.8187 Hectares 95.9211 Acres Article 4 Direction: The Brunswick 'comprehensive' Article 4 direction approved in August 1993 Brunswick 'Minor Works' Direction Painting Article 4 direction (Brunswick Place North) Lansdowne Square (Painting) direction Introduction: The purpose of this document is to describe the history and character of this conservation area in order to provide a context for policies contained in the Development Plan, which will guide future development and enhancements in the area. The statement was approved as Supplementary Planning Guidance on 18th February 1997. Historic Development of the Area : Brunswick Town has been described as one of the finest examples of Regency and early Victorian planning and architecture in the country. Much of the area was designed as a whole by the architect Charles Augustin Busby with Amon Wilds. The spacious elegant houses of Brunswick Square and Terrace were built between 1824 and 1840. The Brunswick Estate also had its own market building, town hall and Commissioners. In 1830, an Act of Parliament was made requiring all houses in Brunswick Square and Terrace and Brunswick Place (South) to be painted regularly and to a uniform colour. This is still a requirement and properties must be painted every five years. Further west, Adelaide Crescent was designed in 1830 by Decimus Burton, but only partly built, and the remainder together with Palmeira Square, was completed to a different design by Sir Isaac Goldsmid in 1850-1860. The result was the bottle shaped layout, with Palmeira Square and the famous floral clock at the top.
