Research trip to Brighton

As set out in my learning agreement, I stated that I would visit Brighton to visit places that my grandparents would have socialised and worked before they emigrated. On the visit, I only made a couple of visits, including to the corn exchange, the beach ect. Unfortunately, the Brighton Pavillion was closed, therefore I will make a second trip in the near future.

On this trip I was lucky enough to be given a private tour around the corn exchange. I was taken to the main hall where my grandparents would have danced and shown different original interiors that would have been there in the 1950s. I'd like to arrange a second trip to the corn exchange, as there was an event being set up in the middle of the main hall. Therefore I was unable to get a full image. I'd also like to collect some more photographs from my grandparents of them at the corn exchange to compare the time and start drawing them in the location. Here are some images from the day:
