This site offers an illustrated local history tour which is especially suitable for visitors using English as a second language, as it is linked to some language practice exercises. These should be of interest to teachers and learners planning study visits to Brighton.

This link to the web site which I co-edit for my own community, will help you experience Brighton through the activities and concerns of some of its residents. I live in The Round Hill Conservation Area, a pleasant suburb of Brighton, north of the Level and the Open Market. The residents' association is known as The Round Hill Society. I am a Committee Member of The Round Hill Society and also represent local residents on Brighton and Hove City Council's Conservation Area Advisory Group.
Another of my interests is the compositions of Ewan MacColl and Peggy Seeger which range from love songs to social comment on many aspects of British and American society.

The asociacion de La Santina is the website which I edit for a residential community based in Oviedo Asturias, NW Spain. A long-lasting Spanish friend of mine organises social, cultural and recreational visits open to the 200+ neighbours who share this residencia. My Spanish friend also has a holiday home in El Campello to the north of Alicante, where she has made me welcome on many occasions.
