Visitor, Comment 1

. . . many congratulations on a splendid four days . . . a huge amount of effort must have gone into organising such a large-scale event. I thoroughly enjoyed everything I attended and it was certainly well worth the effort in co-coordinating the logistics so as to fit in as much as I could. I have counted up and it was 13 tours and venues that I attended . . . Once more well done, and I look forward to next year's event.

Thought i'd drop you a line to thank you and all your team for organising a really informative and interesting weekend. . . I went on the Warleigh Road walk, Sue Berry's Georgian Brighton walk, the town hall tour, the Brunswick village walk (yours), the Beanfields to Bogemia walk, the Industrial revolution north laine walk and also the Foundry street walk . . . Each and every one of them was well constructed and totally absorbing . . . Please pass on my thanks, there needs to be far more events like this in Brighton!!
regards

Hi Nick
I really enjoyed yesterday and everyone who came to look round my place was totally delightful. It was a lovely day . . . Thanks so much for all the research you and your volunteers did on the street and our houses. It is a fascinating insight into the past. I still haven’t had time to look in detail at the past occupants of my house, but I look forward to envisaging who they were and what might have gone on here all those years ago.
Very best wishes
Julia

The tour went very well and I really enjoyed the chance to bring the site to life for the group. Would be more than happy to repeat in the future.
