About Fencing in Brighton
Brighton grew from an obscure Sussex fishing village into England's most famous seaside resort after physician Richard Russell settled there in the 1750s and championed the health benefits of sea bathing, sparking a wave of fashionable visitors keen to try the cure. The turning point came in 1783, when the young Prince of Wales, later Prince Regent and King George IV, first visited hoping the sea air might ease his gout, and in 1787 he commissioned a modest seaside lodging to be remodelled into what became the Royal Pavilion. The Pavilion reached its final, extraordinary form between 1815 and 1822 under architect John Nash, who transformed it into an exotic Indo Saracenic palace, though Queen Victoria found it not to her taste and sold it to the town in 1846, since when it has served as everything from a civic building to a First World War hospital for wounded soldiers.
