Brighton is a town in the city of Brighton and Hove (formed from the towns of Brighton, Hove, Portslade and several other villages) in East Sussex on the south coast of Great Britain. For administrative purposes, Brighton and Hove is not part of the non-metropolitan county of East Sussex, but remains part of the ceremonial county of East Sussex.
The ancient settlement of Brighthelmston dates from before Domesday Book (1086), but it emerged as a health resort during the 18th Century and became a destination for day-trippers after the arrival of the railway in 1841. Brighton experienced rapid population growth reaching a peak of over 160,000 by 1961. Modern Brighton forms part of a conurbation stretching along the coast, with a population of around 480,000.
Eight million tourists a year visit Brighton. The town also has a substantial business conference industry regularly hosting the Liberal Democrat, Labour Party, occasionally the Conservative Party and Trade Union annual Conferences. Brighton has two universities and a medical school. Live webcam views from the beach, promenade and pier in Brighton and more webcam from England HERE
