Nostalgic Black and White photograph taken of Daddy Long Legs (from the sea) Brighton.

The photograph is printed on 260gsm photographic paper with light-fast inks.

This historic photograph captures the remarkable Brighton and Rottingdean Seashore Electric Railway, famously nicknamed the “Daddy Long Legs.” Elevated above the water on tall stilt-like legs, the tramcar carried passengers along the coastline on a submerged track—an ambitious late‑19th‑century engineering experiment unique to Brighton. The image shows the vehicle filled with passengers, with Victorian seafront buildings, the promenade and beach activity visible in the background. As a rare visual record of one of Britain’s most unusual transport innovations, this photograph appeals to collectors of coastal history, engineering heritage and vintage Brighton imagery.
