Abstract:
Four phases in the economic and physical development of Brighton (East Sussex) are identified. (1) Between the later sixteenth and mid-seventeenth centuries, the town grew and prospered through fishing, particularly in the North Sea, with cargo carrying as a secondary employment. (2) In the later seventeenth century Brighton boats withdrew from North Sea fishing, in part because the town's foreshore was being eroded by the sea. Cargo carrying became of relatively greater importance, but could not prevent loss of population and falling material prosperity. (3) From the 1740s visitors to the town in search of cures for their illnesses and of recreation brought a reversal of fortunes. Much new employment in services was generated, and extensive rebuilding and infilling occurred within the town's long-established boundaries. (4) In the 1770s, the town broke these boundaries and suburban development began. Until the 1820s the form of this development was strongly influenced by the pattern of the existing open field system.
