1. Title: A Glorious Past - Brighton's West Pier in 1923: Regency Splendor and Seaside Pleasures 2.. Step back in time with this evocative photograph of Brighton's iconic West Pier, captured in 1923. The image offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history of this beloved Sussex seaside resort, showcasing the pier's grandeur and the stunning Regency Square in the background. The West Pier, a Grade I listed structure, has long been a symbol of Brighton's vibrant past and enduring charm. Originally built in 1866, the pier was a marvel of Victorian engineering, attracting visitors from far and wide with its amusement arcades, pavilions, and dance halls. In this photograph, the pier's ornate ironwork and elegant pavilion can be seen in all their glory, standing proud against the backdrop of the azure sea. Beyond the pier, the elegant Regency Square comes into view, its white stucco facades and manicured gardens a testament to the opulence and refinement of the Regency era. The square, completed in 1823, was designed to provide a tranquil retreat for the wealthy visitors who flocked to Brighton for its therapeutic sea air and social scene. Together, the West Pier and Regency Square represent the dual nature of Brighton: a place of both indulgence and relaxation, where the thrill of the fairground meets the elegance of the drawing room. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the pier's storied past and the enduring allure of Brighton's unique blend of history, culture, and seaside charm.
