The constitution of the Regency Society

Conservation
The Regency Society worked for the establishment of conservation areas in Brighton and Hove and is represented on the Conservation Advisory Group, which advises the Council on planning applications. It has made financial contributions to the restoration of several important buildings in the town, including St. Nicholas' and St. Peter's churches, the Indian Arch and the Bow Rooms at the Royal Pavilion. It also loans a number of items of furniture to the Pavilion and maintains an archive of items of local interest.

Planning and Development

Information
Leading authorities from around the country come to Brighton to share their experience and expertise with members of the Regency Society through a programme of lectures.

Subject matter includes topics as diverse as Discovering the history of your house, The Restoration and Conservation of Ightham Mote, and outstanding individuals such as Sir Simon Jenkins, John Makepiece, Nicholas Grimshaw and John McAslan discussing their own work.

Whenever an important new development is put forward in
Brighton and Hove, the Regency Society is consulted and seeks to influence planning decisions.

Recently, the Society has been involved in discussions on schemes covering the Dome complex, the new library, the Brighton and West Piers, Marlborough House, and the schemes at
Brighton Station, Marina,
Black Rock and the King Alfred
