Talk:History of Brighton

message: I'm troubled by the Roman occupation section, in particular the second paragraph. I can't find any documentary evidence of a Roman road through Hove and Brighton. I've got the "Historical Atlas of Sussex" (1999) in front of me showing the various Roman roads, villas and artefacts found in Sussex. The road to Hassocks isn't marked as going over the Downs. Does anyone have any evidence on a possible Roman road through Hove and Brighton? --Seaweed 18:32, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Roman occupation 

message: In the paleolithic paragraph, the mention of the "Brighton-Norton lower Raised beach" doesn't explain what the Norton in "Brighton-Norton" refers to. I found it stood out awkwardly when reading it. Can somebody who knows what it is please expand on that? If it's just a direct quote from the referenced article, I'd say it should just be removed, on the basis that too much information with no obvious instructional value can be confusing and off-putting. – Kieran T (talk | contribs) 15:29, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hehe, I presume you mean my "ruthless policy"? ;) It's simply because we have three articles: Brighton, Hove, and Brighton and Hove, and... well, since they've been broken down like that, and all mention each other, it seems redundant to duplicate information. Wikipedia could get very cluttered if that happened with every overlapping topic. – Kieran T (talk | contribs) 23:37, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

text: The Brighton Norton Raised beach is a raised (15m) palaeolithic beach which extends from Black Rock in the east to Norton in West Sussex. These raised beach deposits are known as Coombe Rock (formerly the Elephant Beds). Most of the Coombe Rock outcrops are now covered by the Brighton and Hove conurbation, especially along Marine Parade. Interestingly at Black Rock, there is a palaeocliff, clearly shown in section. Its just behind Asda car-park, and it is really quite clear once you get your eye in. --Dumbo1 21:46, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
