Brighton Historical Society Walks – Discovering Brighton’s History

Join Brighton Historical Society on a walking tour for a fascinating insight into some of the significant early homes of Church Street Hill, many dating back to the 1890’s.

After the tour, head into Bayside Gallery and immerse yourself in the Past lives exhibition. 

Past lives highlights significant events and characters that have shaped Bayside’s past.

Drawing from Bayside City Council’s collection and from the local historical societies, the exhibition will explore topics such as Brighton’s 19th century land boom and important well-known identities such as Thomas Bent, as well as fascinating untold stories from our community.
