Piers and Queers, a walking tour during the national LGBT History Month in February, will follow in the footsteps of some of the historical Brightonians who lived outside the norms of sexuality and gender. Brighton’s current popularity as a gay-friendly city is well-known, but Brighton has been attracting people who wanted to ‘escape to the seaside’ for over 200 years. And this included many people who we would now call LGBT.
