    This attractive artisan quarter of the city provides two contrasting environments for visitors and residents; the area to the east of Lower Rock Gardens, which is the next part of the tour, where we will see the many independent pubs, restaurants, boutiques and markets that make up this historical sanctuary, far from the madding crowd, that later leads to the more vibrant and bustling St. James Street area of Kemptown.

    Growing from a small fishing village to a thriving and fashionable seaside resort, Brighton had seen an extensive change in its development by the end of the 19th Century.
