North Laine history


North Laine History photo

“Laine” is a Sussex dialect term for an open tract of land at the base of the Downs. It is derived from an Anglo-Saxon legal term for a kind of land holding. North Laine was once occupied by five open farming plots of a type that seem to have been unchanged since the Middle Ages.

1970s: Saved from demolition

Ken Fines (1923–2008) was Borough Planning Officer for Brighton from 1974 to 1983. He is credited with having saved the North Laine area from extensive redevelopment that could have seen existing buildings being replaced by new high-rise buildings. Fines felt the area had charm and pressured the local council to retain it.
