Filming starts this month on Madeira Drive, to tell the unique story of Brighton’s connection with nature.

The film is being made by James Farrell from Building Green and LatestTV, and will describe modern Brighton’s origins as a city founded on the sea – especially the link between sea-bathing and health. It will explore the fascinating history of the development of Madeira Drive – as place of Victorian invention, and a place to walk in nature, to see and be seen.

The film will also look ahead to the plans to restore and rejuvenate this neglected part of the city for the benefit of local residents, workers and visitors…and the nature environment we all depend on.

We are looking for good quality photos and video of Madeira Drive – especially wildlife on and around the green wall. It can be taken on a phone, or perhaps a camera. If you have anything please send a link to info@building-green.org.uk before the end of September.
