Brighton is a coastal northern suburb of the City of Brisbane, in the state of Queensland, in Australia.[3] In the 2021 census, Brighton had a population of 9,664 people.[1]

Geography

Brighton and its neighbouring suburb Bald Hills are the northernmost suburbs of Brisbane.[4] Brighton is located 27.9 kilometres (17.3 mi) by road north of the Brisbane CBD.[5]

The suburb is bounded to the north by the Pine River, to the north-east and east by Bramble Bay (a side bay of Moreton Bay), to the south by Bracken Ridge Road, to the south-east by the Deagon Deviation, and to the east by Bald Hills Creek.[6]

The Deagon Deviation enters the suburb from the south-east (Bracken Ridge / Sandgate) and follows the course of Bald Hills Creek before exiting to the north-east to become the Houghton Highway and Ted Smout Memorial Bridge (the pair of bridges across Hays Inlet to Clontarf in the City of Moreton Bay).[6]

Nashville is a neighbourhood in the south-west of the suburb (27°18′46″S 153°03′30″E / 27.3127°S 153.0583°E / -27.3127; 153.0583 (Nashville)).[7]

Brighton has been mostly developed as suburban housing. In the north of the suburb there is some rural residential development and undeveloped wetlands. In the south-west of the locality are undeveloped wetlands which include Third Lagoon (27°18′39″S 153°03′10″E / 27.3109°S 153.0527°E / -27.3109; 153.0527 (Third Lagoon)).[8] The lagoon is so-called as it is one of the three lagoons of the Sandgate area, the first being Einbunpin Lagoon and the second being Dowse Lagoon which are both within the suburb of Sandgate.[9]

History

The Brighton Hotel located along Beaconsfield Terrace was believed to be built by David Rowntree Somerset. An early settler, Captain William Townsend, bought the Brighton Hotel and used it as his home and, once sold in 1893, it was used as an orphanage. It resumed being a hotel in 1912.[10][11] The suburb takes its name from the hotel, which is believed to be named after Brighton in Sussex, England.[3]

Brighton Methodist Church, circa 1947

Land for a Methodist church was purchased in 1914. In January 1917, a small Sunday school was opened on the site. [12] In 1919, a Methodist church building was relocated from Killarney (where it had opened in 1902) to the Brighton site, where it was erected and officially opened on Saturday 5 June 1920.[13][14][15][16][17] On Saturday 2 December 1939, 500 people attended the opening of a new church building by Reverend F. A. Malcolm, the President of the Methodist Conference. The previous church was relocated to the rear of the site to be used as a Sunday school hall.[18][19] In 1977, the church joined in the amalgamation that created the Uniting Church in Australia becoming the Brighton Uniting Church. The church at 41 Deagon Street (27°18′49″S 153°03′46″E / 27.3136°S 153.0628°E / -27.3136; 153.0628 (Brighton Methodist Church (former))) was closed circa 1999, and was later sold and the church and hall (the former church) were converted into a house.[20] It is now within the suburb boundaries of Sandgate.[4] It is listed on the Brisbane Heritage Register.[12]

Brighton State School opened on 27 January 1920.[21][22]

Remains of the Brighton end of the Hornibrook Highway Bridge after demolition, 2012

Since 1935, three bridges have connected Brisbane to Redcliffe Peninsula between Brighton at their southern end and Clontarf on the peninsula at their northern end. The first of these to be built was the Hornibrook Bridge, which opened on 4 October 1935. On 20 December 1979 , a second bridge known as the Houghton Highway was opened and the Hornibrook Bridge was closed to traffic, but could still be used by pedestrians, cyclists, and for fishing. On 11 July 2010, the third bridge, the Ted Smout Memorial Bridge, opened, enabling the Houghton Highway to be used for northbound traffic and the Ted Smout Memorial Bridge to be used for southbound traffic. Due to the deteriorating condition of the Hornibrook Bridge and the cost to maintain it, most of the bridge was demolished in 2010 with only the southern portal remaining at the Brighton end and the northern portal and a small section of the bridge (following some reconstruction) remaining at the Clontarf end; both are available for recreational use.[23][24][25][26]

RAAF Station Sandgate, 1944
Eventide Hospital, 1947
Inside Eventide Home, 1949

Brighton was the site of the Second World War barracks of the RAAF Air Training School between December 1940 and May 1946; it was built on reclaimed land. It later became Eventide, a large nursing home run by the Queensland Government. More than 700 patients were transferred from Dunwich on North Stradbroke Island to the facility.[27] It was announced in late 2012 that the nursing home would close because the government did not wish to continue to provide aged care facilities.[28][29] The site was redeveloped as the Brighton Health Campus, which provides a range of rehabilitation services and some aged care.[30]

Brighton Baptist church at 77 North Road (27°17′41″S 153°03′19″E / 27.2946°S 153.0553°E / -27.2946; 153.0553 (Baptist church (former))) opened in 1958. It is now in private ownership and has been converted into a residence.[31][32]

Nashville State School opened on 25 January 1960.[21]

St Kieran's Catholic School opened on 2 February 1960.[21]

In June 1990 the Uniting Church in Australia congregations of Boondall, Brighton, Sandgate and Shorncliffe decided to amalgamate. Their new Sandgate Uniting Church in Deagon was opened in Sunday 20 November 1994.[33]

The Autism Therapy & Education Centre opened on 27 January 1991.[21]

Attractions

Brighton Wetlands' Speight Street Entrance

Brighton Wetlands

Brighton has a woodland wetland protected by the local government. This natural reserve is made up of three woods; namely Goodenia Woods, Pimelea Woods and Dianella Woods. The land is so called a wetland as it fills with water during heavy rain which flows into a small tidal creek, Copold Creek, that flows under one of the main roads of Brighton, Beaconsfield Terrace, and then leads to Bramble Bay between 15th and 16th Avenues.

Brighton Esplanade

Brighton is a desirable Brisbane suburb due to both the ease of public transport, such as the train service from nearby Sandgate, and also the bayside esplanade. This peaceful parkland esplanade follows the coast between the Houghton Highway bridge and Sandgate. The esplanade is used by walkers, cyclists and families. Brighton's beach is used by kite surfers and also walkers during low tide. The road that follows the esplanade is called Flinders Parade named after the navigator Captain Matthew Flinders who was the first European to discover the area in order to establish a penal colony for Lord Brisbane, Governor of New South Wales.[citation needed]
