Lat Wednesday (the 10th of December), some friends and I went to Brighton.
Brighton is a seaside resort on the south coast of England.
Here are a few of the photographs that I took.
This is a view of the Palace Pier from the beach. This Victorian structure opened on the 20th of May, 1899 and is 1722ft long.
This is what's left of Brighton's West Pier. It opened on the 28th July, 1866. In December 2002, its concert hall was seriously damaged by a huge storm. On the 28th of March the following year, its pavilion was destroyed in an arson attack. Later in 2003, on the 11th of May The Pavilion was also subjected to an arson attack.
This is a view of the remnants of the West Pier, taken from the deck of the Palace Pier.
In this photo, taken from the Palace Pier, you can again see, on the left, the old West Pier. The huge tower near the centre of the picture is the i360, Europe's tallest moving viewing platform. It stands 162 Metres high.

Another picture from the beach between the two piers.
It's the run up to Christmas, and the Clock Tower (sometimes referred to as the Jubilee Clock Tower, as it was completed for Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee in 1888) is festooned with lights for the festive period. You can see it in the town centre.
