EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia photograph takes us back in time to the Chain Pier Brighton, capturing its grandeur before the year 1896. The image showcases a remarkable piece of history that stands as a testament to Brighton's rich maritime heritage. The pier stretches out majestically into the sea, its wooden planks weathered by countless tides and storms. The intricate design of the pier is truly awe-inspiring, with ornate ironwork and delicate arches adding an elegant touch to this iconic structure. As we gaze upon this snapshot from yesteryears, we can almost hear the sounds of laughter and chatter echoing along the promenade. People stroll leisurely along the pier, taking in panoramic views of Brighton's coastline while enjoying moments of respite on charming benches that line its path. This photograph serves as a window into a bygone era when life moved at a slower pace; it invites us to imagine ourselves transported back in time, experiencing firsthand what it was like to be part of this bustling seaside community. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's Photographic Collection, this print offers both locals and visitors alike an opportunity to connect with their roots and appreciate how much has changed over generations. It reminds us that even amidst progress and development, there are timeless treasures worth cherishing – like memories captured through lenses long ago
