A fascinating compilation of films from across the 20th century are now on view at the Brighton Fishing Museum. The films document different facets of Brighton's seafront past, among them a Punch & Judy Show, the antics of the Brighton Swimming Club, the filming of 'Oh! What a Lovely War' on the West Pier and scenes of the Palace Pier. Roger Dunford, longtime Swimming Club member, made several of these films, which capture the fun and camaraderie of this special organisation.
Screen Archive South East thanks the depositors of these films, the Floating Memories project and the Heritage Lottery Fund for making this film compilation possible.
To view the films and to find out more, visit the Brighton Fishing Museum.
