EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a significant moment in Brighton's history. In this photo print, taken in the 1930s, we see a group of dignitaries gathered outside the iconic Dome in Brighton, Sussex. Among them is Henry D Roberts, the Mayor of Brighton at that time. The Dome itself has a rich history. Originally built as a stable block by the Prince Regent, it has served various purposes over the years. It was transformed into a Victorian skating rink before being used as a military hospital during World War I. Most recently, it had been repurposed as a performing arts venue. This image represents an important milestone - the reopening of the reconstructed Dome after extensive renovations. The ceremony held on September 14th, 1935 marked not only its revival but also celebrated its enduring significance to Brighton and its residents. The presence of both men and women among these dignitaries highlights their collective efforts towards preserving and revitalizing this historic landmark. Their expressions exude pride and satisfaction for successfully restoring such an architectural gem. Thanks to this photograph captured by an unknown photographer from "A History of Royal Pavilion" we are transported back to witness this momentous occasion firsthand. It serves as a testament to our shared heritage and reminds us of how cherished landmarks like the Dome continue to shape our cultural identity today.
