What is decided in the town hall today will affect us all for years to come. EBRA is opposed to the gradual downgrading of this historic and charming part of the city by bars, takeaways, unsuitable development, and yes, even the rash of aerials!

Our little area is awash with booze, bars and clubs! How did it get that way? Can we do anything about it?

Yes we can! EBRA has already taken the initiative and set up a meeting with the City Council planners to find out what their policy is, and let them know what the residents think.

Read what the planners had to say!

It took months of research to bring you the amazing story of East Brunswick.

Everything you ever wanted to know about our area! The history, the buildings, the people. It is all here in words and pictures!

Take a look.

An aerial or dish is illegal in a Conservation Area if it is visible from the street. Yet this was taken in the EBRA area on 29 August!

The council are charged with administering Planning Law, yet are doing nothing to stop this gradual downgrading of this CA! We call on Brighton & Hove City Council to get something done about this.

You can help! Email planning enforcement using the link below. Just say "an aerial at [address] is visible from the street. What do you intend to do about it?"

Down with Aerials!

By law they must reply so let's all do it. Let them know they must do their job!

But surely there's only a few of them. Wrong, there are hundreds, all illegal!

You guessed it, every one of these is illegal, some are even on listed buildings and they look awful!

This is a Conservation Area and this is only a small sample. Why does our Council do nothing! Let's ask them!

Read about Aerials.

EBRA was founded in 2005 as a forum for the views of those who live and work in East Brunswick.

EBRA is staffed on a voluntary basis by people who live in the area. We are committed to preserving and improving the unique atmosphere of our area.

Brunswick Street East to get new lighting!

After much lobbying by EBRA and willing support from the Environment Improvement Team at the City Council, we have now heard that Brunswick Street East and Kerrison Mews are to get new street lighting.

Work should be complete before the dark winter months. Part of the cost will be met from Neighbourhood Renewal funds.

EBRA thanks all concerned!

We want more news! Let us know what is happening in the EBRA area, happenings, events, tall tales, funny stories, gossip and rumour.
