In the Lanes, a picturesque old street tucked aWay behind the modern facade of Brighton, are many antique shops like this one, which is particularly rich in chinaware.

Behind the dusty panes of this

Merry ’Doctor Brighton’ ls POpUlCtr English Town

Fifty miles due south of Lon- don, Brighton smiles out over the sunlit English channel. No seaside resort in Britain has a more cheerful, even complacent atmosphere, and the town has good reason to be a little self- satisfied. For two hundred years it has been a centre for the famous and the fashionable, a health resort - ‘kind, cheerful, merry “Doctor” Bright-on’ as Thackeray called it, and the goal of everyone who seeks sea. sunshine and entertainment at the same time.

Brighton has been called Lon- don by the sea, but in reality it has an unique character of its own. It is historic, imbued with memories of the pleasure - lov- ing Prince. Regent - later King George IV - who made the town famous, and retaining in the architecture of its squares and terraces the graceful elegance of the 18th century.

It is modern, with every up—to- date facility for holiday enter- tainment. It is a haunt ot' num— erous stage and screen actors, television and radio personalities, many of whom make their home here, only an hour by train from London. You will often see them at the Theatre Royal on Satur- day evenings. Finally it caters with equal efficiency and enthu- siasm for the visitor who wants luxury hotels and exclusive shops. and for those who come to eat candy - floss and ride in dodlgem cars on the piers.

In the first half of the 18th. century Bright-helmstone - its original name - was a small, un- known fishing village. Thcn in the 17595 a certain Dr. Russell instituted sea - water cures, and despite the fact that he made his patients drink the sea - water, the place gained fame as a heal- th resort. It was this that brought the then Prince of Wales, later Prince Regent, to Brighton in 1783 when he was just 21 years old.

What he thought of Dr. Rus - sell’s medicine is not known, but he liked Brighton. Three years later it was here that he brought the famous beauty, Mrs. Fitzher- bert, whom he had secretly mar. ried, and later the house built for him was enlarged and con- verted into the fantastic, quasi- oriental Royal Pavilion which re mains one of Brighton’s mos fascinating sights today“ ~ ‘

This is the heart of Brighton. The Pavilion itself is open to the public and during the summer contains a wonderful exhibition of Regency furniture and works of art. The adjoining Dome, once the royal stables, is now a lux— urious concert hall where a sea- son of first - class orchestral concerts is given during the win- ter, and big conferences are held. Close by is the Theatre Royal. birthplace of many new plays prior‘to their London production. and the Steine gardens, a blaze of colour by day and illumina. tions at night.

Wander into the streets just to the west and you will find a relic of pro-Regency Brighton in the famous area known as ‘The Lanes.’ This is a few acres bor- dered by East Street, West Street, North Street and the seafront: a network of narrow streets linked by passageways known locally as

‘twittenes.’ Here are antique shops, jewellers and junk shops by the dozen where you may buy anything from old furniture. exquisite silver and glass to stamps and second - hand books. It is a happy hunting ground for collectors, and the late Q u een Mary was a familiar figure here.

Westwards along the front lies the adjoining resort of Hove, with more beautiful Regency ar- chitecture, gardens and a big programme of sporting events. Hove is quiet and elegant, Brigh- ton vital and gay. and the tWo towns form an admirable part- nership. .

All along Brighton's seafront there are excellent hotels in

every price range. This is one of '

the reasons why more and more visitors are making their head - quarters and visiting London from there; first - class hotel accommodation is available at lower prices than many compar- able hotels in London, especially between October and May; you can motor to the capital by the well - known Brighton Road, or there is the quick and frequent train service, with late - night trains to bring you home after a show.

Brighton itself has two large ballrooms as well as dancing at many of the hotels, three live theatres, cinemas and several
