Consider the physical geography of Brighton in order to explain its development as a settlement.
By the 1820s, the town had spread beyond the limits of the unenclosed strips which meant that opportunities were available for the grander crescents and terraces. Kemp Town was started in 1823- but not completed until much later, as a result of economic difficulties. Thomas Kemp fled the country to escape his creditors. By the end of the 19th century, these grand houses were already too big and were being converted into flats.
